docs: describe the rebuild task's two phases
The task now refreshes the affected series after reassigning the episodes, so the notes explain why both phases exist: reassigning an episode does not create the season it now belongs to, and stopping after the first phase leaves the previous seasons standing empty. Also notes that progress runs 90% episodes then 10% seasons, so the run should be allowed to reach 100%, and what a failed series refresh looks like. Note: AI Generated Commit

Both phases matter. Reassigning an episode does not create the season it now belongs to, so without
