Fix store crash when filtering after load (loader thread cleanup)

StorePage cover/date loaders were never removed from tracking once their
thread finished, and _populate/_begin_scan dropped the whole list while
threads were still running. That garbage-collected QObjects whose QThread
had already been deleted, leaving a dangling thread affinity that crashed
Qt (SIGSEGV) when searching the store after it fully loaded.

Loaders now remove themselves and deleteLater on their finished signal, and
the tracking list is kept until each thread winds down.
