[Enhancement]: Have convert to m4b run as a daily task? #3109

Type of Enhancement

Server Backend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

It would be awesome if we could enable a task that runs daily at a time we specify for ABS to convert all books that are currently MP3 to be converted to M4B.

Additionally embed metadata would be another great task to automate.

Why would this be helpful?

Manual conversion through ABS is painful if you have more than a handful. 3rd party solutions like AutoM4B require extra steps like re-applying metadata.

Oh and maybe an option to limit concurrent conversions to a set number as well as an end time so that it only starts new conversions during a set window?
