feat(node): refuse an upload on a full disk with a stated reason
Nothing on the upload path knew about ENOSPC: a write that found no room raised out of the handler, the catch-all answered "Request failed", and the .part stayed behind holding the space that had run out. The node now refuses with `disk_full` at chunk 0 when the announced size would leave less than 1 GiB free, and at any write that fails with ENOSPC/EDQUOT, dropping the partial. The client carries the code on the error and the transfers panel says "The node's disk is full" in every catalogue. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
