fix: copy through a temporary file so a cut-short copy is not kept
Copies of already-MP3 sources were written straight to their destination while
encodes went via a temporary file and a rename. A copy interrupted by a full
disk, a killed container or an I/O error therefore left a truncated MP3 in the
mirror -- and because shutil.copy2 reproduces the source's mtime along with its
bytes, staleness detection would read that fragment as up to date and never
replace it. The damage is silent and permanent until someone plays the track.

Give copy the same temporary-file-and-rename path encode already uses, so the
destination either has the whole file or has nothing.

"""Maintain a lossy MP3 mirror of a lossless music library.
Walks a source library and reproduces it, path for path, as MP3 in a separate
directory tree: FLAC in, MP3 out, same relative layout, tags and cover art
carried across. Sources that are already MP3 are copied rather than re-encoded.
The mirror is derived state. It is only ever written to, never read as a
source of truth, so it can be deleted and rebuilt at any time. Nothing here
writes to the source library.
Staleness is tracked by modification time: an encoded file is given its
source's mtime, so a file is out of date exactly when the two differ. That
makes runs idempotent without a database to keep in step.
