feat(flutter/cache): migrate artistProvider to drift-first (#357 plan C)

artistProvider becomes a StreamProvider backed by drift's cached_artists
watch(). Empty + online triggers REST fallback; populates drift; watch
re-emits. Empty + offline yields a sentinel ArtistRef(id: '', name: '');
surfaces should already check state.value?.id.isNotEmpty.

AsyncValue<ArtistRef> shape unchanged so .when callsites keep working.
