ovos-media-provider-soundcloud

An OVOS MediaProvider plugin for SoundCloud. It replaces the deprecated OCP search skill ovos-skill-soundcloud.

The OCP pipeline used to broadcast ovos.common_play.query over the bus and wait for skills to answer. Now it loads MediaProvider plugins in-process, gates them by routing, and calls search() directly. This plugin wraps the nuvem_de_som SoundCloud client. Its orchestrator, SoundCloud.search(), already returns mediavocab.Release objects. The plugin drops artist and user identity hits (mediavocab.Entity), because a MediaProvider returns playable media, not identities.
