Supported devices from the README: Compatibility with calibre

New libraries use calibre's own metadata.db schema (user_version 28).
Dalibre registers the SQL functions calibre's triggers call (title_sort, uuid4, …), so writes behave as calibre's do.
Book folders and files follow calibre's naming (Author/Title (id)/Title - Author.ext, transliterated to ASCII), and move when the title or first author changes.
Edits write metadata.opf and mark the book in metadata_dirtied, so calibre refreshes it next time.
Removed books go to the system Recycle Bin.
