Turning _(show) to _(tv_series)

BUR #24723 has been approved by @nonamethanks.

create alias dexter_(show) -> dexter_(tv_series)
remove alias dexter_(show) -> dexter_(tv_series)
rename firefly_(show) -> firefly_(tv_series)
rename pantheon_(show) -> pantheon_(tv_series)
rename gachinko!_(show) -> gachinko!_(tv_series)
rename yameme_(show) -> yameme_(tv_series)
rename cops_(tv_show) -> cops_(tv_series)
rename titans_(tv_show) -> titans_(tv_series)
rename zip!_(tv_show) -> zip!_(tv_series)
rename welcome_home_(show) -> welcome_home_(arg)

Let's rename these for consistency and specificity. Only outlier is Welcome Home which is an ARG about a fictional television show so I'm electing to give it the _(arg) qualifier since there is both a movie and a real tv show called "Welcome Home."

I'm a bit hesitant because of the existing 440 *_(series) tags that cover all types of media (video games, comic books, franchises), including TV series like Community (series) and many that only have a single tag (i.e., they don't span multiple formats), but these are all pretty short and vague, so I guess some specificity is fine. It's better than how it is currently, at least.

ZIP! (TV show) is infotainment program (morning show), so _(tv_series) seems odd.

Late reply but what would be a better qualifier here? Our other similar tags would be things like Fox News and NowThis News which have it in the tile and don't need one. Does Zip!_(news_program) work?

I would prefer to see _(series) being used over _(tv series) because it covers additional media. For example, firefly_(show) had a movie which was a direct continuation of the series, and should be counted under the same copyright.

I personally think series runs into issues of potentially being ambiguous. For example Dexter_(tv_series) with a TV_series qualifier makes me think of the HBO show, whereas just (series) could be the cartoon though we do have that under a different name. We also have so many different mediums under the _(series) qualifier. Games, movies, Sentai, what should we do if they have the same name? I'm thinking a date qualifier might be good. _(1996) or _(1972) for those fringe cases, thoughts?

Later I'll make an alt BUR for all the tags that have a _(tv_show qualifier in addition to above since my main goal is consistency.
