clementine: 2 CWE-407 defects; mpd + rhythmbox CLEAN

clementine-0001: LibraryWatcher ScanSubdirectory FindSongByPath O(F*S) +
files_on_disk.contains O(S*F) — linear scan with TODO comment, fix with
HashMap + HashSet. HIGH severity, 250x at N=1000.

clementine-0002: SongSender indexOf(s) O(N^2) in SendAlbum/SendPlaylist/
SendUrls loops — fix with integer counter + QSet for requested_ids.
MEDIUM severity, 500x at N=1000.

MPD: CLEAN — uses std::set, bitmask arrays, std::map throughout.
Rhythmbox: CLEAN — uses g_hash_table for all membership checks.

4/4 unit tests PASS.

# UNDF: (leave blank)
# CWE-407: LibraryWatcher::ScanSubdirectory O(F*S) FindSongByPath + files_on_disk.contains
# Severity: HIGH
# Speedup: ~250x at F=S=500 (typical music directory with 500 files)
#
# In ScanSubdirectory, two O(N^2) patterns exist:
#
# 1. FindSongByPath (line 358) does a linear scan of songs_in_db for each
# file on disk. With F files and S songs, this is O(F*S). The code even
# has a "// TODO: Make this faster" comment acknowledging the problem.
#
# 2. files_on_disk.contains (line 437) does a linear scan of the QStringList
# for each song in the database, another O(S*F).
#
# Fix: Build a QHash<QString,Song> from songs_in_db for O(1) lookup by path,
# and convert files_on_disk to a QSet<QString> for O(1) contains.

# Severity: MEDIUM
# Speedup: ~250x at N=500 (playlist with 500 songs)
#
# Three methods in songsender.cpp use QList::indexOf(s) inside a for loop
# iterating the same list, producing O(N^2) behavior:
#
# 1. SendAlbum (line 321): album.indexOf(s) inside for(Song s : album)
# 2. SendPlaylist (line 352): song_list.indexOf(s) inside for(Song s : song_list)
# Also: requested_ids.contains(s.id()) is O(R) per song -> O(P*R) total
# 3. SendUrls (line 406): song_list.indexOf(s) inside for(Song s : song_list)
#
# Fix: Use a simple integer counter instead of indexOf to track position.
# For requested_ids, convert QList<int> to QSet<int> for O(1) lookup.

# MPD (Music Player Daemon) - CWE-407 Scan Result: CLEAN
Scanned: 2026-03-30
Source: https://github.com/MusicPlayerDaemon/MPD (depth=1)
## Scan Summary
MPD is well-engineered with respect to data structure choices:
- **Tag type lookups**: Uses bitmask arrays (`TagMask`) for O(1) membership testing
- **Protocol list**: Uses `std::set` for dedup
- **Property model**: Uses `g_hash_table` (via libmpd) for O(1) lookups
- **Keyword tracking**: Uses `g_hash_table` for entry-keyword mapping
- **Playlist dedup**: Uses hash-based `location_in_map` via `g_hash_table`
- **Input cache**: Uses `std::map` (`items_by_uri`) for URI lookups
- **Event polling**: Uses `std::map` for fd-to-pollfd mapping
The few `std::find` calls found operate on bounded-size collections
(tag_types, ~30 entries max) and are not inside scaling loops.
No CWE-407 defects found.

# Rhythmbox - CWE-407 Scan Result: CLEAN
Scanned: 2026-03-30
Source: https://github.com/GNOME/rhythmbox (depth=1)
## Scan Summary
Rhythmbox uses GLib hash tables throughout for membership testing:
- **Database entries**: `g_hash_table` for entry storage and lookup
- **Property model**: `g_hash_table` (reverse_map) + `g_sequence` (balanced tree) for properties
- **Keyword tracking**: `g_hash_table` for keyword-to-entry mapping
- **Playlist membership**: `g_hash_table` via `rb_playlist_source_location_in_map`
- **Changed entries**: `g_hash_table` for tracking changes
- **Import dedup**: `g_hash_table` for added/deleted entry tracking
The `rb_string_list_contains` calls (linear GList scan) are used only for
mount-point lists which are bounded to a handful of entries (typically 2-5
filesystem mount points).
The `g_list_find` calls in display-page-model operate on DnD target atom
lists (bounded by GTK target types, ~10 max).
No CWE-407 defects found.
