fix(delete): prune in-memory SerieList cache after delete

delete_series() removed the row from the database and the folder
from disk, but never evicted the entry from SerieList.keyDict — the
in-memory cache that list_series_with_filters() reads from via
SeriesApp.list.GetList(). As a result /api/anime kept returning the
deleted series on every page reload (the 'Beyblade Burst still listed
after delete' bug).

Changes:
* Add SerieList.remove(key) so the cache has a proper eviction API.
* In delete_series(), call it (or fall back to keyDict.pop) after a
  successful DB delete.
* Broadcast a broader series_list_changed event so any client that
  missed the specific series_deleted event can re-sync by re-fetching
  /api/anime. Front-end: new SERIES_LIST_CHANGED constant, handler
  that triggers SeriesManager.reloadSeries().
* Two new regression tests: one asserting the in-memory cache is
  pruned, one asserting the broader broadcast fires.
