ML-62	Route Search artist queries through Artists context	Done		2026-04-20 08:54			https://github.com/cloud8421/music_library/issues/113	low

Problem

MusicLibrary.Search.search_artists/2 and search_artists_count/1 build their own Ecto queries directly joining Records.ArtistRecord to Artists.ArtistInfo, bypassing the Artists context entirely. This violates the project convention that context modules own all queries.

Proposed solution

Add search_by_name/2 and search_by_name_count/1 to MusicLibrary.Artists, then have Search.search_artists/2 and Search.search_artists_count/1 delegate to them. Remove ArtistRecord and ArtistInfo aliases from Search.

Files involved

• lib/music_library/artists.ex (add functions)
• lib/music_library/search.ex (delegate, remove aliases)
• Tests for Artists and Search
