* Add support for configuring and using multiple OPDS servers, replacing
the previous single-server limitation. Closes
https://github.com/crosspoint-reader/crosspoint-reader/issues/1178
* New OpdsServerStore singleton (modeled after WifiCredentialStore) that
persists up to 8 OPDS servers to /.crosspoint/opds.json with MAC-based
password obfuscation.
* One-time migration from legacy single-server fields in
CrossPointSettings to the new store on first boot.
* New OpdsServerListActivity for the device UI — works in two modes: a
settings list (add/edit/delete servers) and a picker (select which
server to browse). When only one server is configured, the picker is
skipped automatically.
* Renamed CalibreSettingsActivity → OpdsSettingsActivity for clarity. It
now edits individual OpdsServer entries (name, URL, username, password,
delete).
* OpdsBookBrowserActivity now receives an OpdsServer at construction and
uses its credentials for all fetches/downloads, and shows the server
name in the header.
* HttpDownloader::fetchUrl and downloadToFile accept optional per-call
username/password parameters instead of reading from global settings.
* REST API endpoints on CrossPointWebServer: GET /api/opds, POST
/api/opds, POST /api/opds/delete — passwords are never exposed over the
API (only a hasPassword flag), and omitting the password field on update
preserves the existing one.
* Web UI (SettingsPage.html) with dynamic OPDS server management cards —
add, edit, save, and delete servers from the browser.

/>
* The OpdsServerStore JSON format and obfuscation scheme are identical
to WifiCredentialStore, so the same JsonSettingsIO infrastructure
handles both.
* The web API uses POST /api/opds/delete instead of DELETE /api/opds
because the ESP32 WebServer doesn't support the DELETE method with a
request body.
* Existing single-server configurations are migrated automatically — no
user action required. After migration the legacy CrossPointSettings
fields are cleared so it only runs once.
* The HttpDownloader changes are backward-compatible: the credential
parameters default to empty strings, so existing callers are unaffected.

## Problem
Many e-ink readers have limited image decoder support natively.
EPUBs with images in other formats than **baseline JPEG** frequently
cause:
- **Broken images**: pages render as blank, corrupted noise, or never
load
- **Slow rendering**: unoptimized images cause severe delays on e-ink
hardware, up to 7 seconds per page turn, with cover images taking up to
59 seconds to render
- **Broken covers**: the book thumbnail never generates
Fixing this today requires external tools before uploading.
---
## What this PR does
Adds an **optional, on-demand EPUB optimizer** to the file upload flow.
When enabled,
it converts all images to baseline JPEG directly in the browser — no
server, no internet,
no external tools needed.
**Conversion is opt-in. The standard upload flow is unchanged.**
---
## Real-world impact
The optimizer was applied in batch to **61 EPUBs**:
- 60 standard EPUBs: 198 MB → 55 MB (**−72.2%**, 143 MB saved)
- Text-dominant books: 8–46% smaller (covers and inline images
converted)
- Image-heavy / illustrated books: 65–93% smaller
- 1 Large manga volume (594 MB): 594 MB → 72 MB (**−87.8%**, 522 MB
saved)
- EPUB structural integrity fully maintained — zero new validation
issues introduced across all 61 books
*Size and integrity analysis:
[epub-comparator](https://github.com/pablohc/epub-comparator)*
From that set, **17 books were selected** as a representative sample
covering different content
types: image-heavy novels, pure manga, light novels with broken images,
and text-dominant books.
Each was benchmarked on two devices running in parallel, one on `master`
and one
on `PR#1224` — measuring render time across ~30 pages per book on
average.

## How to use it
**Single file:**
1. Click **Upload** (top of the page) — a modal opens. Use **Choose
files** to select one EPUB from your device.
2. Check **Optimize**.
- *(Optional)* Expand **Advanced Mode** — adjust quality, rotation, or
overlap; set individual images to H-Split / V-Split / Rotate.
3. Click **Optimize & Upload**.
**Batch (2+ files):**
1. Click **Upload** (top of the page) — a modal opens. Use **Choose
files** to select multiple EPUBs from your device.
2. Check **Optimize**.
- *(Optional)* Expand **Advanced Mode** — adjust quality.
3. Click **Upload** — all files are converted and uploaded sequentially.

## ⚠️ Known limitations
**KoReader hash-based sync will break** for converted files. The file
content changes,
so the hash no longer matches the original. Filename-based sync is
unaffected.
If you rely on KoReader hash sync, use the Calibre plugin or the web
tool instead.

## Alternatives considered
| Approach | Friction |
|----------|---------|
| **This PR** — integrated in upload flow | Zero: convert + upload in
one step, offline, any browser |
| Calibre plugin (in parallel development) | Requires a computer with
Calibre installed, same network |
| Web converters | Requires extra upload / download / transfer steps |
