Complete Phase 7: Testing and Validation for identifier standardization

- Task 7.1: Update All Test Fixtures to Use Key
  - Updated FakeSerie/FakeSeriesApp with realistic keys in test_anime_endpoints.py
  - Updated 6+ fixtures in test_websocket_integration.py
  - Updated 5 fixtures in test_download_progress_integration.py
  - Updated 9 fixtures in test_download_progress_websocket.py
  - Updated 10+ fixtures in test_download_models.py
  - All fixtures now use URL-safe, lowercase, hyphenated key format

- Task 7.2: Add Integration Tests for Identifier Consistency
  - Created tests/integration/test_identifier_consistency.py with 10 tests
  - TestAPIIdentifierConsistency: API response validation
  - TestServiceIdentifierConsistency: Download service key usage
  - TestWebSocketIdentifierConsistency: WebSocket events
  - TestIdentifierValidation: Model validation
  - TestEndToEndIdentifierFlow: Full flow verification
  - Tests use UUID suffixes for isolation

All 1006 tests passing.
