Fix Sonarr TV request policy and bump gateway to 0.1.40

CHANGELOG.md

@@ -1,3 +1,6 @@
+## 0.1.40 — 2026-08-14
+- Fixed: TV requests use Memby's safe Sonarr request policy: a selected 720p profile, normal monitoring and no immediate backlog search unless an operator enables it.
+
 ## 0.2.62 — 2026-08-13
 - Fixed: Playback is back to the way it worked in 0.2.60. The groundwork for Memby playing video itself caused problems, so it has been withdrawn and will return once it is ready.
