peter e887233210 fix(downloads): E11.5 epic-end review round 1
A refused Facebook cookie on a group post is no longer "no video in this post":
measured on dev, Facebook answers with its login page (no post id at all), so the
adapter now raises its own POST_NOT_SHOWN verdict and the catalog explains it as
the refused cookie. The adapter owns both post verdicts and the "cannot parse
data" wall wording, so the Chrome retry and the catalog read one constant. The
group-post "no formats" entry is cookie-scoped (with a cookie yt-dlp only gets the
post's video link) and uses the adapter's own group-post test instead of a
"/groups/" substring.

Job transitions that move an asset's ref count (resume, cancel, delete,
redownload) re-read the job under a row lock, asset first, so two overlapping
requests can no longer release the same hold. get_or_create_asset loses an insert
race inside a SAVEPOINT instead of rolling back the caller's pending writes (Retry
lost its cleared error). Every worker-side job failure goes through
finalize_if_running and writes error_detail, so a cancel that landed first is kept
and a failure never shows an earlier one's copy. The worker asks the download
child's own cookie gate (credentials.usable_cookie) when a job inherits a failed
asset.

UI: the Facebook copy no longer points at a Retry button the failure window does
not have, says "paste" like Settings, and the HU wording is fixed
("Újraletöltés" on the re-download confirm). A category this client has no copy
for falls back to the generic sentence instead of a raw key.

Tests: route serialization of error_detail, the probed duration through a real
_download, the page-read cap and a failed read, a Retry off a pending asset, the
confirm-button labels, the lock and savepoint races.

"""Classify a raw yt-dlp / ffmpeg failure string into a stable category code — and, where a site's
failure has been measured, into that site's entry of the failure catalog.
The worker stores the raw exception text (truncated) for technical detail, but a raw
`ERROR: [youtube] <id>: Private video. Sign in…` is noise to a user. `classify()` maps that text
to one of a small set of category codes; the frontend turns the code into a localized, human
explanation (and decides whether a retry makes sense). The raw text stays available behind a
"details" disclosure. This is the same string-matching approach the worker already trusts for
`_RETRIABLE_MARKERS` — kept here as the single source of truth for "what kind of failure is this".
**The failure catalog** (`_CATALOG`, E11.5). A category is generic: "Sign-in required" cannot tell a
Facebook user that the cookie they already gave was refused, and yt-dlp words several different
Facebook walls identically (`Cannot parse data`). A catalog entry is scoped to ONE host and may also
depend on whether a cookie was attached and on the kind of link, and names a `detail` code the UI has
its own sentence for — why it failed on that site, and what the user can do. `diagnose()` tries the
catalog first and falls back to the category. How an entry is added, every time a failure is reported:
1. reproduce it on dev (with and without the user's cookie) and keep the verbatim yt-dlp text;
2. add the entry below, scoped as narrowly as the measurement allows (a marker that is yt-dlp's
generic wording for every site must never match without its host; a marker another module also
decides on — the Facebook Chrome retry's FACEBOOK_PARSE_WALL — is imported, never retyped);
3. pin the real text in `tests/test_download_errors.py`;
4. add `downloads.errors.fail.catalog.<detail>.{short,body}` in EN and HU (a contract test checks it;
the group is not called `detail`, which `actionErrors.contract` reads as a raw `HttpError.detail`).
