…fresh The JellyfinServer.scan_path() method was ignoring the path parameter and calling /Library/Refresh, which triggers a full scan of ALL libraries. This change: - Uses /Library/Media/Updated endpoint which accepts specific paths - Only refreshes the library containing the specified path - Uses modern Authorization header format (MediaBrowser Token="...") - Adds proper JSON payload with Updates array This matches the behavior of the Plex implementation which correctly uses path-specific scanning.

Summary
This PR fixes two issues with Jellyfin integration:
Path-specific scanning:
JellyfinServer.scan_path()was ignoring thepathparameter and calling/Library/Refresh, which triggers a full scan of ALL libraries. Now uses/Library/Media/Updatedto only refresh the library containing the specified path.Modern authentication: Updates from legacy
X-MediaBrowser-Tokenheader to modernAuthorization: MediaBrowser Token="..."format, which is required whenEnableLegacyAuthorizationis disabled (the default in modern Jellyfin).Changes
