Three fixes from on-device testing of best-quality mode:
1. clear_completed_local no longer prunes terminal tasks that belong to a
STILL-ACTIVE batch (one with non-terminal work remaining). The 5-min
"Clean Completed Downloads" automation was yanking completed/failed/
unverified rows out of download_tasks mid-run — and failed/cancelled
aren't in library_history — so they only reappeared after the batch
ended. Now the whole active batch stays intact until it finishes.
2. search_all_sources runs every source CONCURRENTLY (asyncio.gather)
instead of sequentially, so the pool waits only for the slowest source
(e.g. usenet/Prowlarr) in parallel rather than summing all latencies.
3. The pool log now reports per-source contribution counts
(e.g. "usenet=0, hifi=11, soulseek=1") instead of just echoing the
chain, so a release-level source that returns nothing for a track-title
query is visible rather than appearing to have been searched.

Adds an opt-in search strategy toggle in the Quality Profile:
- priority (default): unchanged — first source in the hybrid chain that
meets a quality target wins.
- best_quality: pool candidates from EVERY source per query and download
them best→worst by actual audio quality; source order only breaks ties.
Implementation reuses existing plumbing so the retry system is untouched:
- engine.search_all_sources pools raw tracks across all configured,
non-exhausted sources (no first-source short-circuit).
- candidates.order_candidates: new quality_first sort path — profile
quality rank dominates, confidence/peer signals break ties. Priority
path is byte-for-byte unchanged (regression-locked by tests).
- task_worker passes quality_first + targets through; skips the redundant
hybrid-fallback block in best-quality mode (pool already covered it).
- Per-source retry budgets unchanged: a source that spends its budget is
added to exhausted_download_sources and thus dropped from the whole
pool. Independent of post_processing.retry_exhaustive.
- Query generator NOT touched.
Also clarifies the "Allow fallback" setting wording: it accepts OFF-LIST
quality as a last resort (not "walk down my list"), and notes that
lossy_copy.downsample_hires also bypasses the quality gate — the cause of
16-bit/MP3 files slipping through a 24-bit-only profile.
