chore(playback): remove Preload Next Track setting (#1007)

* chore(playback): remove Preload Next Track setting

The configurable next-track RAM preload duplicated hot cache and is
obsolete now that ranged streaming starts playback sooner. Gapless and
crossfade still use the internal audio_preload backup when hot cache is off.

* docs: add CHANGELOG entry for Preload Next Track removal (PR #1007)

### Playback — Preload Next Track setting removed
**By [@cucadmuh](https://github.com/cucadmuh), PR [#1007](https://github.com/Psychotoxical/psysonic/pull/1007)**
* The **Preload Next Track** toggle and timing modes under **Settings → Storage → Buffering** are gone — ranged streaming now starts playback without that extra RAM prefetch.
* Gapless and crossfade still prefetch the next track internally when Hot Cache is off; Hot Cache is unchanged.
