Add Step 4 fallback: generate key from folder name

- SerieScanner: generate key from folder when no key/data files exist
- Handle edge cases: non-Latin characters, special symbols in folder names
- anime_service: expose loading_status and loading_error fields
- Update tests to match new fallback behavior
