A missing file is not a reliable signal: models download on first use,
some backends need no file, and dotted names like Phi-3.5-mini look like
paths. Marking such a fallback down removed the retry a chain exists
for. Cold targets are now judged only by real requests.

An admission rejection or a disabled target moves the request to the
next target through Attempt.Skip, which records no failure. A 4xx
response no longer counts as a success. Requests skip body recording
when no chain is configured, and stop it once the model is known not
to be a chain.

Warm local targets are pinned in the watchdog and preloaded. Switches
and target health are exported as metrics, skipped attempts as traces.

Remote liveness uses /v1/models, which every OpenAI-compatible upstream
serves. Recovery sends one minimal request for the target's usecase.

Idle targets get a liveness probe each interval, recovering targets an
inference probe. Cold local targets are never loaded to be probed.

recomputeLocked only fired the event on an active-target change or on
entering degraded. When the active target itself recovered while every
target was down, the chain silently left degraded with no event, so
SSE/realtime consumers tracking chain.switched.state got stuck on
"degraded".

errcheck flagged two side-effect-only m.Plan calls in tests, and unused
flagged close(), which Task 5's probe scheduler wires in.

Health is tracked per target and the active target per chain. Fail-back
waits for recovery probes and a minimum time on the fallback.
