• API v1

Creates a Lidarr metadata profile in the selected PCD database.

Runtime validation enforces Lidarr-specific rules including:

• case-insensitive unique profile name
• reserved name None is rejected
• all source categories include explicit allowed booleans
• type/status rows in write payloads use id, name, and allowed.
