Ettore Di Giacinto 80f4da42ad fix(distributed): bound the health monitor's miss streaks to live rows
HealthMonitor.misses holds one consecutive-failed-probe count per (node,
model, replica) and nothing ever removed an entry whose row had gone. It is
the only per-node state in a frontend that grows on model churn rather than on
fleet size, so a deployment that loads and unloads models for months
accumulates an integer per tuple it ever probed and gives none back.

There are four ways a row stops being visible to the pass, not one. A node
departs and the pass skips its probes; a node goes offline or unhealthy on a
stale heartbeat and the pass skips it entirely; an operator sets a node
draining; or the row is removed by an unload, a scale-down or an eviction, and
nothing tells this monitor.

So the bound is the pass itself, and not a subscription on the departure
notifier. The notifier evicts the caches a DEPARTURE invalidates and it keeps
that one meaning; this reads a different fact, that there is no longer a row
to count misses against, and covers all four cases with one rule. A row the
pass could not probe is marked seen before the probe, so an unreachable worker
still leaves its streak exactly as it was rather than having it forgiven; a
pass that could not list the fleet prunes nothing, since it observed nothing.
Forgetting only ever delays a reap by up to the miss threshold and can never
cause one.
