* feat: searchable alternative titles for ROMs Add an editable "Alternative titles" field to manual metadata, folded into the search titles alongside provider aliases. IGDB localization titles now join the ROM's alternative names, and the canonical IGDB name is kept as one when a regional title is displayed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <[email protected]> * fix: list hand-added titles in alternative_names, test the field Address Greptile review on #5111: the response's alternative_names now appends the hand-added titles to the first provider's, and the Alternative titles field gets a component test. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <[email protected]> * test: type the alternative titles field lookup Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <[email protected]> * fix: code-review pass on alternative titles Validate title lists from client-written metadata in one helper, list hand-added titles first so the search text cap never drops them, and let the titles combobox keep commas inside a title. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <[email protected]> * refactor: simplify pass on alternative titles Dedupe IGDB titles once in build_igdb_rom, inline the manual title source, and reword the combobox comma comment. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <[email protected]> * docs: review-polish pass on alternative titles Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <[email protected]> * docs: humanizer pass on alternative titles Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <[email protected]> * fix: hand-set alternative titles override, providers join A non-empty manual list replaces every provider's titles, in the list and in search; otherwise every provider's titles are joined. IGDB and Hasheous store every title they know, the canonical name and regional localizations included, and the ROM's displayed name is left out only when listing them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <[email protected]> * fix: validate manual metadata on ROM update A malformed raw_manual_metadata is rejected with a 422 instead of being stored and failing every later response for that ROM.
