Next Up walked every series in an unpaginated loop and read user data one
episode at a time, so the Home screen row cost two queries per series once the
cache was gone.
- read the played state of every candidate episode in one query
- read the versions the resume check and the last played date need in one query each
- default PrefetchedUserData on IUserBaseItemComparer so plugin comparers still compile
- cover the bounded query count and the plugin comparer with tests
- share one database across the replica tests
The user data cache and the item's in-memory rows were both filled once per
replica and never invalidated, so a pod serving a playback tick read its own
stale resume position and wrote it back over the position another pod had just
saved, silently losing resume points, played state, favourites and ratings.
- drop the user item data cache
- read single and batched user data from the database on every query
- prefetch user data for in-memory sorts and filters so each stays one query
- cover the lost update against real PostgreSQL with two manager instances
