Performance Improvements

• chunks: send write event only once for chunk (022ca6a)
• core: optimize async operation & progress events (#23) (b82ae38), closes #19 #21

BREAKING CHANGES

• core: minimum supported Node.js version is now 20.
• core: CLI -st shortcut was removed; use --style.
• core: automatic file-name resolution changed to better capture names from URLs and content-disposition, so resolved output file names may differ from previous releases.
• core: pause() now closes active connections and resume() reopens them.
• core: start and finished events are now emitted for Existing and Cloned download edge cases.
• core: public download metadata moved to a per-part model: DownloadFilePart.size was replaced by remoteFileSize and downloadSize, and per-part settings such as parallelStreams now live on each part instead of resumable progress metadata.
• core: TypeScript event APIs on exported download engines are now stricter, so arbitrary string event names are no longer accepted by default on typed emitters.
