Subject: [PATCH] Fix playlist sync failing on Emby due to integer ID
 validation

The _is_valid_guid method only accepted 32-char hex GUIDs (Jellyfin
format) but Emby uses plain integer IDs like "12345". All matched
tracks were rejected as "invalid/empty IDs" causing playlist creation
to fail with zero tracks. Now accepts both numeric strings (Emby)
and hex GUIDs (Jellyfin).
