Describe the feature/enhancement

Currently when you have series collapsed in the library view, they all show the number of books inside in the top right, whether they're a subseries or a top-level series. And hovering over with the cursor simply dims the image.

However, collapsing series in the series view shows the sub-series books' indices in the top-level series, and hovering over shows the first book's id and sequence number:

So right now it seems like sub-series are treated as regular series in the library view, and both as regular and as sub-series in the series view.

I think if there was a separate metadata tag for sub- vs top-level series, as has been discussed in various other places (https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf/issues/2092), some of these inconsistencies might be easier to solve.

Also see https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf/pull/1105 for I believe when this UI discrepancy was introduced.

I fixed that bug with the collapse sub-series. The difficulty with collapsing series is the sql queries. I think what you are requesting is covered by #2092 and this issue will be for fixing that bug.
