stream: fallback only replays already-aired tracks
The fallback played the whole /cache directory, which at cold start holds only the 2-3 tracks being pre-fetched — so it looped them until the request.dynamic buffer filled. Restrict the fallback to tracks already aired: the ingest daemon exposes them at GET /fallback.m3u (played_at set, still on disk), and the stream fetches that into a local /tmp/fallback.m3u that playlist watches. Cold start is now silent (assumed) instead of a tight loop, and a mid-stream drain degrades across the whole listening history. A local file (not a remote playlist URL) is used to avoid Liquidsoap's http resolver mis-sniffing the response as text/html; mime_type is forced so an empty header-only m3u still parses.
