feat: loading skeleton on the manga detail page

The detail loader now streams its six-call bundle instead of blocking
navigation on it. The page component is a thin {#await} wrapper: it shows a
MangaDetailSkeleton (cover + meta + chapter rows) while the bundle loads,
renders the extracted DetailView once resolved, and shows an inline
not-found on a 404 (previously the framework error page). Extracting
DetailView also makes it remount per navigation, so its tag/bookmark/reaction
state re-seeds cleanly on manga-to-manga moves.
