Part of #85

inject the Web API client ID at build time (ADR 0008 style), no release without it, build without it still runs
add the plugin to scripts/build-plugins.py and the release workflow; register in the plugin index
official releases build without the librespot feature; add a separate, clearly named unofficial build/channel with it on, for Windows, macOS, Android and Linux
README: unofficial, Premium only, likely breaks Spotify's terms, account risk, Offline caching risk; no Spotify logo or colours
follow-up: Radio (Spotify's recommendations endpoint is closed to newer apps)
have a lawyer review the plan before publishing

Implemented on branch ticket/90-spotify-release.

Optional build-time default client ID (MEDLEY_SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID / CI secret SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID), passed to the plugin as config key client_id. Bring-your-own is the default, since a shared ID is not viable (5 users per client ID, #88). #89 reads config::get("client_id") and lets the user's own ID win.
Official release workflows build without librespot. New unofficial-v* tags build a separately named pre-release (medley-librespot_*) with the librespot feature for Linux, Android, Windows and macOS; that build does not self-update.
Plugin registration needs nothing extra (auto-published by the plugins workflow).
README Spotify section and legal notes added.

Still open, needs the owner: the lawyer review of the plan. Do not push an unofficial-v* tag before it. Noted in docs/development.md. Workflows were not run.

Implemented and merged on spec/85-spotify-source. Left open: the lawyer review of the plan is still pending (owner), and no unofficial-v* tag should be pushed before it. Unverified in CI: Android/Windows/macOS librespot builds.
