This establishes key as the single source of truth for series
identification while maintaining folder as metadata for filesystem
operations only.
- Add validation in Serie.__init__ to prevent empty/whitespace keys
- Add validation in Serie.key setter to prevent empty values
- Automatically strip whitespace from key values
