v1.8.89

New - Playlist queue mode. Tap "Play playlist" on any playlist to start playing through its items in order. Each item auto-plays the next when finished.
New - "Up next" indicator on the Absorbing page tells you what plays next under the queue chip. Toggle in the manage queue sheet to hide it.
New - The manage queue sheet now matches the active mode. It shows your series in sequence (auto-next mode) or the playlist's items (playlist mode) instead of always showing the manual queue.

Fix - Series view sorts books by sequence number, so book 2 comes before book 10.
Fix - Cover changes on the server now show up after the next browse, and re-downloading a book pulls a fresh cover too.

Fix - Back navigation keeps your scroll position instead of jumping to the top.

Fix - "Hey Google, rewind a minute" no longer jumps back to where you were a moment later.
Fix - No more ghost 10-hour-long listening sessions appearing on the server.
Fix - Stop silently dropping unsynced local progress when the server and local both have unsynced changes.
Fix - The sync no longer loops retrying when local and server are at the same position.
Fix - Sleep timer countdown ticks every second instead of every five.
Fix - Skip controls from Bluetooth devices now work on iOS.

Fix - Non-admin users with the "Update" permission can now edit metadata in the app (fixes #225).
Update - "Merge libraries" setting renamed to "Unified Absorbing page" to make it clear it only affects what shows on the Absorbing page. Follows the "classic wording" toggle too.
