Cursor Agentandrmcrackan 79bdbe6d76 Tell the user how to delete the search index when repair fails
Ported from #1949, which surfaces the manual recovery steps the maintainer had
been giving out by hand instead of leaving the user with a raw Lucene error.

Adapted to the failure now being contained: with the exception no longer escaping
into the library change, the scan-failure catch blocks #1949 hooked would never
see it, and hooking only those would still miss every other trigger -- removing
books is what crashed the GUI. So the guard moves from AppScaffolding into
SearchEngineCommands next to the update commands it protects, and raises
UpdateFailed from there. Both GUIs subscribe, so any trigger is covered, and the
event carries the exception rather than needing #1949's StackTrace string sniffing
to find it. The dialog is shown once per session: a damaged index fails on every
library change and these steps only need following once.
