fix(api): address code review findings (#66)

- Raise HTTP 500 if create_async returns None (DB failure on POST)
- Capture bool result from update_async/delete_async; raise HTTP 500
  on False; only clear cache after confirmed success
- Fix DELETE test to self-create player in Arrange (no inter-test dep)
- Replace all(UUID(...)) with explicit _is_valid_uuid() validator
- Redeclare PlayerResponseModel fields with id first (controls JSON order)
- Add type hints and Google-style docstrings to HyphenatedUUID methods;
  rename unused dialect params to _dialect
- Align service logger with main.py: getLogger("uvicorn.error") with
  reference comment (Kludex/uvicorn#562)
- Replace logger.error(f"...") with logger.exception("...: %s", error)
  in all three SQLAlchemyError handlers
- Replace EN dashes with ASCII hyphens in seed_002 log/argparse strings
- Replace logger.error with logger.exception in seed_001/seed_002
  sqlite3.Error handlers
- Remove inline comments from .coveragerc exclude_lines (configparser
  treats them as part of the regex, preventing pragma: no cover from
  matching)
