Introduce a new RequestHandler base class to introduce a shared session,
centralize HTTP request management and error handling across plugins.
Key changes:
- Add RequestHandler base class with a shared/cached session
- Convert TimeoutSession to use SingletonMeta for proper resource
management
- Create LyricsRequestHandler subclass with lyrics-specific error
handling
- Update MusicBrainzAPI to inherit from RequestHandler
- Prioritize explicit featuring tokens (feat, ft, featuring) over generic
separators (&, and) when splitting artist names
- Prevents incorrect splits like 'Alice & Bob feat Charlie' from splitting
on '&' instead of 'feat'
- Add test cases to verify the fix
## Description
Fixes#5625
When `convert.never_convert_lossy_files` is enabled, `beet convert` was
ignoring the explicit `--format` option and just copying the lossy files
without
transcoding them. For example:
- `beet convert format:mp3 --format opus`
would still produce MP3 files instead of OPUS.
Change:
- Allows to override options `never_convert_lossy_files`, `max_bitrate`
or `no_convert` for `beet convert` as well as trying to convert to the
same format as existing already with a new option `--force`. That way,
for example lossy files selected by the query are transcoded to the
requested format anyway.
- Keeps existing behavior for automatic conversion on import (no CLI
override there).
- Adds tests to cover checking whether `--force` correctly overrides
settings or CLI options.
- Documents the behavior in the convert plugin docs

Added regex pattern to strip C0/C1 control characters (excluding useful
whitespace) from log messages before terminal output. This prevents
disruptive/malicious control sequences from affecting terminal
rendering.
