Each release chunk is a release inserted once: release_key the SHA-1 of
the identity, the owner group and the first article (deterministic; no
numbering under a group lock), identity_key the identity's SHA-1 bytes,
poster_id and group_set_id through catalog_refs (cached per process),
source as a code (weak-stem added), the name into release_texts. A
finished release's candidates are claimable at once; a provisional tail
release is finished by a later chunk of its key, a finished one sent again
is left alone. Gone: joins into earlier releases and across groups, key
numbering, the group lock, the fragment merger. Interim: chunks, counts
and samples keyed by ranges.block_id, a range without a block gets one.
Readers follow: search (posters and group_sets joined, words through
release_texts, posters by id, source by code), the par2 merger, the
sidecar folder, the judge's scraped rule, the spot inspector, the spotter,
the NZB service, releases:regroup, edge:bench. Tests insert fixtures
through tests/functional/helpers/releases.ts; the suites pass again.

Eweka drops quiet connections, so the next command on one failed
("Spot inspection failed: NNTP connection closed"), and idle connections
held account slots that downloads could use. The coordinator pool now
closes free connections (and the plain one) on its sync once idle for
60 s; dry prober lanes, the spotter between rounds and the spot inspector
with nothing to inspect close theirs too, reconnecting when work comes.

Two processes, one NNTP connection each (the coordinator 40 -> 38):
- spots:read (service spotter): free.pt's overviews after the last article
seen, each spot's full header verified (lib/spotnet from voyager 1, as
Spotweb), its description, website and NZB articles; the password its
title or text names; delete/dispose messages applied.
- spots:inspect (service spot-inspector): each spot's compressed NZB read,
its files listed (spot_files), each matched to the header pass's release
by the same release identity in one of its groups within 48 h
(release_spots); unmatched spots matched again hourly, after 24 h a
release of their own (source spot) with the spot's NZB.
- release_passwords: per release and password, its source (nzb, spot-title,
spot-text) and spot; the catalog keeps only passworded.
XoverClient.head(); PROBE_CONNECTIONS default 10.
