Lastfm Client Laravel Package

This release introduces significant improvements with enhanced authentication, performance optimizations, and a cleaner API design.

Breaking Changes

• Method Naming: All methods follow consistent verb-first pattern (getArtistInfo, getTrackInfo, scrobbleTrack)
• Authentication: Restructured with dedicated setApiCredentials() method and LastFmClientFactory
• Parameter Handling: Enhanced with named parameter support and camelCase conversion

New Features

• New AuthHelper class for streamlined Last.fm authentication workflows
• LastFmClientFactory with authentication methods (createWithApiKey, createWithSession, createWithMobileAuth)
• ConfigCache singleton for performance-optimized configuration management
• Enhanced parameter validation with security and performance limits
• Improved error handling with descriptive messages

Migration Required

All method calls must be updated. See CHANGELOG.md and UPGRADE.md for detailed migration guide.
