resolver, watcher: a record type whose query fails keeps its previous records (closes #231)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

The resolver lists in FailedTypes each record type whose query to a
nameserver got no usable reply: none after two tries, an error reply, a
referral, or a truncated reply whose TCP retry failed. Records holds
nothing for such a type, never none or the part that fit. A nameserver
that answered no type has failed, as before. The watcher keeps the
previous check's records for a failed type; when that check did not know
them either (first check, new or failing nameserver), the type is saved
in failedTypes and left out of record and inconsistency comparisons.
ResolveIPAddresses no longer counts a nameserver whose A, AAAA or CNAME
query failed as an answer.

# Completed Steps
- 2026-10-02: a record type whose query to a nameserver fails keeps its previous
records and alerts nothing; the other types are still saved (closes #231).
- 2026-10-02: a resolver test that reads one record type from a nameserver's
answer asks again when that type is missing from it (closes #218).
- 2026-10-02: a plain `docker build .` of a clone stamps its tag or short
