fix(ui): handle library-open errors

Opening a book card swallowed failures: a corrupt or unreadable file
failed silently and normalizeBook could throw on a missing chapters
array. Surface load errors as a toast, throw a clear message on
unparseable JSON, and make normalizeBook tolerant of missing chapters,
metadata and settings.
