✨ feat(aniwatch): Improves title matching logic

- Enhances title matching accuracy when fetching Aniwatch IDs.
- Prioritizes user-preferred titles and falls back to English titles.
- Ensures only one fetch call is made per title if both english and userPreferred title are same.
- Adds a score threshold to filter low-quality matches.
- Fixes a bug where the episode list was not being returned.
