Fix broken series-ID builders; env-var config; project README

Repair every dead series-ID encoding (library now 82/82 query helpers
return live data, verified against the BLS API):

- JOLTS: 21-char format (was 18) — add state/area/sizeclass fields
- OES: national area code 0000000 (was invalid 0000400)
- ECI: correct owner/component/estimate encoding, default unadjusted (CIU)
- Productivity: 4-digit sector + 4-digit measure codes (was 2+3)
- QCEW: 13-char timeseries-API form (ENUUS00010510 / ENU{fips}00010{own}10)
- PPI: repoint finished-goods -> final demand (WPUFD4); keep alias
- ECEC: drop fabricated health-insurance/retirement helpers; add total benefits
- wages SOC: software developers 151132 -> 151252 (2018 SOC)

Tooling/docs:
- config reads BLS_API_KEY env var (takes precedence; config.py gitignored)
- add requirements.txt
- rewrite README as project front door + coverage table + limitations
- correct JOLTS/OES tables in series_id_formats.md, USAGE.md, dataset explorer
