Summary

Routes Jellyfin collection folders (Movies, TV Shows, Collections, Books) to the Library page instead of ItemDetails.

  • Add CollectionNavigation to map CollectionTypeLibrary.Parameters
  • NavigateToItem(Guid) fetches item metadata and routes through the same logic as the DTO overload
  • Home carousel cards always navigate via the full item DTO

~96 lines — stacks on the shell search PR.

Merge order

Replaces the library-navigation portion of closed dfederm#95.

Test plan

  • Side menu: Movies, TV Shows, Collections, Books open library views
  • Home tiles open the same library views as the side menu
  • Search suggestion navigation still opens item details for movies/series

Centralize gamepad virtual-key handling in GamepadInput and route shell navigation (menu toggle, left-edge open, B/Escape back) through NavigationManager at the CoreWindow level so it works on every content page, not only when MainPage has focus.

Video playback now maps A to play/pause, X to mute, and D-pad/stick directions to volume and seeking. Login and server selection accept Gamepad A to submit. WebVideo supports B to go back.
Place a styled AutoSuggestBox at the top of MainPage with debounced Jellyfin search hints. Submitting a query or picking a suggestion navigates to search results or item details. Includes a dedicated Search page with portrait result cards and adjusted content page spacing for the new header.
Replace nested TwoWay x:Bind on search text with code-behind TextChanged handling, use ObservableCollection for suggestions with TextMemberPath, simplify the search box style, and restore full-screen navigation overlay span.
Suppress duplicate QuerySubmitted navigation after SuggestionChosen, cancel stale ItemDetails loads when navigating away, and guard against null UserData on series items.
Defer AutoSuggestBox suggestion navigation to the next UI frame, reset ItemDetails playback state between loads, use null-safe stream bindings, navigate cards by item id, and log unhandled exceptions to the debug output.
AutoSuggestBox TextMemberPath requires WinRT bindable custom properties on suggestion items. Selection text is already applied in code when a suggestion is chosen.
Add CollectionNavigation to map Jellyfin collection types (Movies, TV Shows, Collections, Books) to Library page parameters. NavigateToItem(Guid) fetches item metadata before routing so callers with only an ID still open the correct library view.
