Add to the API how many seasons a tv show has and how many are available through the API #68

See issues 389 and 392 on popcorn-desktop.

Right now the API uses "num_seasons" to tell how many seasons of a certain show are available through the API, but this is quite confusing and definitely misleading when seen on PT. This way, would be better to use "num_seasons" to tell how many seasons a certain show has and create "avail_seasons" to tell how many seasons are available through the API.

How do you think it should work? Sometimes seasons are incomplete (South Park season 13, Heroes season 2), should it be count when a season is incomplete? It's better to choose yes because if not, sometimes it's look like an episode is missing but in fact season is complete, it's just because episode numbers are changed (The Strain season 3, Battlebots season 2). But if they choose yes, maybe someone will complain and ask for only counting complete seasons. :/

edit: Oops, forget me, I'm wrong (I just wake up). Actually it's counting how many seasons are availlable through api and you want to add the number of seasons released on TV.
