Improve scan status indicator reliability on page reload

- Add debug logging to checkActiveScanStatus() for better tracing
- Update status indicator before showing overlay for faster feedback
- Add warning logs when DOM elements are not found
- Ensure idle state is explicitly set when no scan is running
- Add debug logging to AnimeService.get_scan_status()
