Adds Home Assistant entities for the foreground-process feature shipped
in the media server, plus migrates existing display entities to use HA
translation keys (strings.json / translations/*) so per-language UI text
flows through the standard locale mechanism.
Foreground entities (all share one HA "Foreground" device linked to the
hub via via_device):
- sensor.foreground_process — process name as state + full payload
(pid, exec path, window title, fullscreen flag, monitor, geometry,
is_browser, browser_page_title, browser_url, error) as attributes
- sensor.window_title, sensor.pid, sensor.foreground_monitor,
sensor.process_started (TIMESTAMP device class)
- binary_sensor.fullscreen, binary_sensor.minimized
Data flow:
- ForegroundCoordinator polls GET /api/foreground every 5s (HTTP fallback)
- media_player's WebSocket receiver forwards `foreground` /
`foreground_update` push frames into the coordinator via
apply_websocket_snapshot, so sensors update in near-real-time when WS
is connected and fall back to polling otherwise

- Introduce DisplayCoordinator polling /api/display/monitors once per
cycle and fan out to all per-display entities via CoordinatorEntity.
Removes ~9x redundant requests per polling cycle that came from each
binary_sensor/number/select/sensor/switch entity calling
get_display_monitors() in its own async_update.
- Optimistic write-through via coordinator.apply_optimistic(...) keeps
sibling entities in sync after slider/select writes without an extra
network round-trip.
- Make CONF_TOKEN optional. The media server already supports running
without auth (auth_enabled() returns False when api_tokens is empty),
so the integration omits the Authorization header and ?token= query
from REST/WS/album-art URLs when no token is configured. Server-side
auth-enabled rejections still surface as invalid_auth in the UI.
- Bump manifest version to 0.3.2.

Restructure how displays are exposed in Home Assistant:
Each physical monitor is now its own HA device linked to the media-server
hub via `via_device`. The hub keeps the media_player + script buttons; per-
display devices hold the power switch, brightness slider, and the new
capability entities. This lets users place displays in their own area/room
and keeps related entities grouped together in the UI.
New platforms:
- sensor: DisplayResolutionSensor (diagnostic, from EDID)
- binary_sensor: DisplayPrimaryBinarySensor + DisplayPowerControlBinarySensor
(both diagnostic; help users see why a power switch is or isn't created)
- select: DisplayInputSourceSelect (HDMI1/DP1/...), DisplayColorPresetSelect
(color temperature), DisplayPictureModeSelect (VCP 0xDC scene modes)
- number: added DisplayContrastNumber alongside brightness
Other changes:
- display_device helper centralises the per-display DeviceInfo; pulls real
manufacturer/model from EDID; device name no longer prepends the hub
title since via_device already shows the hierarchy.
- api_client gains set_display_{contrast,input_source,color_preset,picture_mode}
and stops forcing `?refresh=true` on every poll so HA can ride the
server's TTL cache instead of triggering full DDC/CI probes per entity.
- select / number entities now check the server's `success` flag and re-
sync from the actual monitor state when a write was silently rejected
(some monitors honor reads but ignore writes for certain DDC/CI codes).
Bumps manifest.json to 0.3.0 - the device topology change is user-visible
and existing brightness/power entities migrate to per-display devices on
first reload (unique_ids are preserved).
- Change execute_script API from positional args list to named params dict
- Update service schema, API client, and constants
- Add execute_script service documentation to README
- Add NUMBER platform for monitor brightness (0-100)
- Add SWITCH platform for monitor power on/off
- Add display API client methods (get_display_monitors, set_display_brightness, set_display_power)
- Add display API constants
