Confidence scoring read the artist from the immediate folder as "Artist - Album", so
common FLAC rip layouts — artist in a parent folder ("Rihanna\(2009) Rated R\…") or
buried ("2009 - Rihanna - Rated R") — parsed with no/garbage artist and scored below
the 0.7 gate. Real FLACs got filtered out and a clean-named MP3 (0.88) won, so Lyra
downloaded lossy when lossless was available (Rihanna "Rated R": 8 FLACs all <0.5).
_parse_search_responses now takes the requested artist and, when it appears anywhere
in the candidate's path (via _path_matches), sets it as the candidate artist so
confidence reflects reality. Especially helps blocklisted-artist fallbacks, whose
album-only results come from varied folder structures. 337 tests pass.
