fix(filer.backup): prevent silent backup data loss on transient not-found (#10295)

* fix(filer.backup): stop silently dropping events on transient not-found

Under a write burst, filer.backup could consume a metadata event (advancing
the persisted offset) without replicating the file, with no error logged:

1. filersink CreateEntry/UpdateEntry swallowed replicateChunks errors
   (glog.Warningf + return nil), so the offset advanced past entries that
   were never written.
2. The manifest-chunk branch of replicateChunks resolved via LookupFileId
   with no retry, unlike the data-chunk branch — transient lookup races
   dropped exactly the large manifest-backed files while small
   inline-content siblings landed.
3. isIgnorable404 matched "LookupFileId" / "volume id ... not found",
   misclassifying those races as genuine source 404s at the backup layer.

Fix: on a replicateChunks failure the filer sink now skips only when the
live source has moved past the replayed version (deleted or strictly-newer
mtime) — lossless, a later event carries the current content — and
propagates otherwise so the event is retried. The manifest resolve retries
transient errors like the data-chunk path. isIgnorable404 is narrowed to
genuine 404s; non-filer sinks and the initial-snapshot walk, which relied
on the broad match as their only lossless-skip valve, now make the same
live-source decision (filersink.SourceSupersedes) instead of retrying
forever on a permanently gone volume.

Tests cover propagation of unconfirmed lookup failures, the narrowed 404
classification, and the supersession guards.

* fix(filer.backup): derive supersession path with directory fallback

eventSourceSuperseded built the source path from NewParentPath alone.
Legacy metadata events (persisted by older filers) carry an empty
NewParentPath, so the probe looked up "/<name>", read the miss as
"source gone", and skipped a live file on a transient lookup error —
the silent drop this change is meant to eliminate.

Derive the path via MetadataEventTargetFullPath (the same directory
fallback genProcessFunction uses) and cover both event shapes with
TestEventSupersessionProbe_PathDerivation.

* fix(filersink): retry manifest resolve only for transient errors, bounded when unverifiable

The manifest-resolve retry stopped only when hasSourceNewerVersion proved
the source moved past the replayed version, which wedged the sink in two
cases: incremental sinks use dated target keys that cannot map back to a
source path (supersession never provable), and permanent resolve errors
(corrupt manifest data, bad file ids) fail forever while the source entry
stays live.

Gate the retry instead: keep retrying only transient errors (volume-lookup
races, network interruptions), stop after a few attempts when supersession
cannot be checked, and propagate everything else immediately so the
configured metadata error policy applies (-disableErrorRetry included).
Propagation is lossless: filer.backup's fallback decides with the event's
real source key, and both filer.backup and filer.sync re-deliver the event
(RetryForeverOnError) without advancing the offset.

* fix(filer.backup): make error classifiers nil-safe

isIgnorable404, isSourceLookupError, and isTransientResolveError called
err.Error() without a nil guard. All current call sites pass a non-nil
error, but the guard is free and matches isRetryableNetworkError.
