feat(node): skip a file the disk stops answering for, then pause its root

2026-10-14T08:17:49Z

A Windows tester's scan stuck for good on one directory of a large disk: one read that never returned held the indexer's only thread, and with it every root behind that one. - A disk call is timed by its silence, not its length: each directory entry listed and each megabyte read counts as an answer. After 60 s of silence the call is abandoned on its daemon thread, the file is noted unread and the scan goes on. - Three silent files in a row pause the root (not persisted). Resume skips the files already known to give no answer; a restart, a replug or a change to the file retries them. - The walk is per directory with os.scandir: a subdirectory that cannot be listed costs itself, and a listing that stops answering pauses the root at once. A scan no longer stats anything from the event loop. - The log names the file after 10 s of silence, the indexing band shows it, and Group settings shows the paused root, where it stuck and the unread files with their reason, on the node's machine only. - generate_http_api.py writes LF on Windows too. Verified with real kernel-blocked opens (an unacknowledged oplock) in the installed frozen app. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

fix(node): a scan keeps its progress while a burst or a plug runs beside it

A watchdog burst wrote the indexer's single `progress` directly. A file dropped into a folder during a large scan added its size to the scan's total, then cleared `scanning` when its own hash finished, so the progress went blank with hours of hashing left. Bursts now keep their own counters, shown only while no whole-root walk runs. A plug rescan took no scan lock and walked its root beside an added root's scan, both resetting the same counters and reading the drive in turn. It now waits for the lock, and skips the rescan if the root was ejected or removed while it waited, since the rescan drops the entries before it walks.
