🚦 v1.1.0.2 — Live control, notifications & no more lockouts

Recommended update for everyone. Install it from Dashboard → Plugins (your server picks the right build), then restart Jellyfin.

✨ New

• Live view of active streams — the settings page lists every counted stream (user, device, client, title, IP, direct play or transcode), refreshed every 5 seconds. Stop and Stop + log out take effect immediately: the download is cut and the slot is freed, so the blocked device can start right away.
• Webhook notifications (#7) — get notified when a stream is blocked, and optionally when an admin stops one. Discord webhooks get a formatted embed; any other URL receives JSON that works with Apprise (Telegram, ntfy, e-mail…) and generic webhooks. A Send test button checks your setup.
• Smarter blocked message — use {{user}}, {{active}}, {{limit}} and {{devices}} in the title and text, e.g. "Already playing on: Living-room TV". Works in the web popup and in the server message.
• Activity log (#7) — every block is recorded in Dashboard → Activity with user, device, client and IP (at most one entry per device every 5 minutes).
• Sidebar entry — Stream Limiter now has its own entry in the dashboard menu.

🐛 Fixes

• No more lockouts after a stop. Some clients keep their session alive after being stopped (AFinity, Swiftfin after a playback error, the Android app's native player). Those devices no longer count against the limit.
• Clients that can't receive commands are now stopped on the server side, so their stream stops counting too.
• Legacy tokens are recognised. On Jellyfin 12, clients sending X-Emby-Token (or the Emby auth scheme) to stream URLs could slip past the hard block.
• The web popup is always on top, above the buffering spinner of newer jellyfin-web versions, and blocks on fetch() requests are detected too.
• A deleted user's limit is now removed from the configuration.

🔧 Under the hood

• The web message no longer edits index.html on disk — it is added as the page is served. It works with read-only web folders (Docker), needs no restart when toggled, never runs a stale cached script after an update (Android webviews included), and the tag left by older versions is cleaned up automatically (also on uninstall).
• Verified end to end on Jellyfin 10.11.11 and Jellyfin 12.3.
• Stricter build checks so every release loads on all 10.11.x and 12.x servers, and CI on every push and pull request.
