extends BoxArtProvider

## itch.io box art provider for OpenGamepadUI
##
## Fetches cover art and screenshots from itch.io game pages. Works alongside
## the itch.io library plugin to provide per-layout artwork: the cover for
## portrait/logo, full-res screenshots for landscape/banner.
##
## Enriches game metadata by scraping the itch.io page HTML for screenshots
## (the itch.io API does not expose them), caches the result in
## itch_art_meta.json, and uses HTTPImageFetcher for async image downloads.
