markandClaude Fable 5 f2bf565623 Harden RelayTV integration and prepare HACS 0.4.0 (#2)
* docs: add Home Assistant 0.4.0 hardening roadmap

* fix: protect media credentials and resume state

* feat: authenticate RelayTV API operations

* fix: make targeting and media state reliable

* test: add Home Assistant integration CI

* fix: validate API credentials during setup

* release: prepare HACS 0.4.0

* fix: align pytest dependency pin

* fix: close URL sanitizer gaps and correct player state reporting

Sync the sensitive-query-key list with the RelayTV server (adds auth,
exp, jwt, X-Emby-Token, X-Jellyfin-Token), filter query credentials
from relative URLs instead of returning them verbatim, and preserve
brackets around IPv6 literal hosts.

Also report volume on RelayTV's 0-100 scale unconditionally (a raw 1
is 1%, not full volume) and give the coordinator its own
position_updated_at stamp — the base DataUpdateCoordinator has no
last_update_success_time, so media_position_updated_at silently fell
back to now() on every read and the seek bar never extrapolated.

# RelayTV Home Assistant Integration
This integration provides a RelayTV `media_player` entity, RelayTV service actions, and an optional Home Assistant sidebar panel embedding RelayTV UI.
## Implemented Behavior
- `media_player` platform is enabled (`custom_components/relaytv/media_player.py`).
- Hybrid state updates:
- bootstrap/reconnect uses RelayTV `GET /status`
- RelayTV `GET /ui/events` SSE provides hot-state updates
- `status` events are treated as authoritative full snapshots
- `playback` / `queue` / `jellyfin` events trigger fast updates or targeted refreshes
- Sidebar panel is registered via Home Assistant frontend iframe panel APIs.
- Optional bearer-token authentication is validated during setup and supports
Home Assistant reauthentication.
- Credential-bearing query parameters are removed from entity state and
persisted resume keys.
- RelayTV services are registered from `services.yaml`:
- `smart_url`
- `play_now`
- `announce`
- `play_temporary`
- `overlay`
- `play_synced`
- `snapshot`
- `play_with_resume`
- `upload_media`
- `upload_media_play`
- `upload_media_enqueue`
## Setup
1. Place this folder at:
`/config/custom_components/relaytv/`
2. Restart Home Assistant.
3. Add integration: **Settings -> Devices & Services -> Add Integration -> RelayTV**.
4. Provide RelayTV base URL (example: `http://relaytv-host:8787`), a
server/display name, and the optional RelayTV API token.
## Options
- `panel_enabled`
- `panel_target_entry_id`
- `sensor_stream_mappings`
## Notes
- `smart_url` uses RelayTV `POST /smart`, which enqueues while already playing and otherwise starts playback immediately.
- `play_now` and `announce` currently target RelayTV `POST /play`.
- RelayTV also exposes `POST /play_now`, but this integration does not currently use its preserve-current behavior.
- Upload services target RelayTV `POST /ingest/media`, `POST /ingest/media/play`, and `POST /ingest/media/enqueue`.
- Upload services accept either a Home Assistant local media source selection or an allowlisted `file_path` visible inside the Home Assistant container.
- Overlay requires `text` or `image_url`.
- Snapshot requires active playback on the RelayTV server.
- Snapshot responses are normalized to absolute URLs for Home Assistant entity attributes.
- The integration keeps `/status` as bootstrap/fallback and does not treat `/ui/events` as a replay log.
- Version 0.4.0 requires Home Assistant 2026.7 or newer.
