Summary

Adds a relevance gate to the two automatic-search paths so they stop queuing downloads that merely share a surname or a common word with the audiobook — e.g. a Patterson Hood concert recording matched to a James Patterson audiobook, or a different Dickens novel matched on the author's name. The gate judges whether the release names the book; it fails open when it cannot judge, and manual search keeps the old behavior so users browsing results still see everything.

Changes

Added

  • AutomaticSearchRelevanceGate (Search/Filters/), a standalone class — deliberately not an ISearchResultFilter. The SearchResultFilterPipeline filters are tuned for metadata-page results and reject legitimate raw indexer releases ("The Lord of the Rings" → product-like "ring", "Man's Search for Meaning" → promotional "search"), so the automatic paths run this gate alone and never consult the pipeline.
  • How a result is judged (Evaluate, returns a RelevanceVerdict with the reason and both scores for the log line):
    • Title on its own. The audiobook's main title (the part before a subtitle separator — :, ;, -, (, [) or its full title must reach 50% of its significant tokens in the result's title. The Artist field never supplies title evidence, and a leading artist credit in the title ("Frank Herbert - Dune") is stripped before the title is judged (unless that prefix is the book's title, as when Torznab infers Artist from a title-first release), so an author's name can never stand in for a missing title word: "Charles Dickens - Oliver Twist" is rejected for David Copperfield, and a long stored subtitle ("Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch") cannot dilute "Good Omens [M4B]".
    • Author corroboration for generic matches. A match that rests on a single shared title word additional...
