Subject: [PATCH] Fix "Argument list too long" in sonarr.sh for large imports

api_post/api_put passed the JSON payload directly as a curl -d
command-line argument, which hit the OS ARG_MAX limit importing
Jeopardy's 1269-file library (a large date-based show is exactly
the case where a batch import payload gets big). Now written to a
temp file and passed via curl's -d @file instead.
