watcher: a hostname whose zone's nameservers all stop answering gets NS Failure (closes #284)

When none of the nameservers of a hostname's zone answered, the walk to
them failed and the check was only logged. The walk now returns a
NoAnswerError naming the nameservers of the zone it reached through a
referral when none of them answers. When those are the nameservers the
previous check saved for the name, each is saved as failed with the
reason, so it gets an NS Failure and later an NS Recovery. A domain with
no delegation of its own, whose NS lookup is that same walk, gets the
same. A walk that fails before that zone, as when the host loses its
network, is still only logged.

 # Completed Steps
 
-- 2026-10-15: a query its caller's context ends before it is sent records no
-  reason about the nameserver, and a try the context's deadline cuts short is a
-  timeout, so a nameserver whose only failures were timeouts is `timeout`, not a
-  network error or `ok` (closes #298).
-- 2026-10-15: the resolver no longer says its query timeout grows on each try;
-  every try waits the same 2 seconds, and the unused `timeoutMultiplier` is gone
-  (closes #296).
-- 2026-10-15: `TESTING.md` Constraints give the resolver's 2-second query
-  timeout and second try, say a zone's servers are asked one at a time in a
-  random order, give the 60-second cap and 20-second target for `make test`, and
-  say a flaky live test is fixed with robustness, not with mocks (closes #289).
-- 2026-10-15: a request under `/s/` that names a directory, such as `/s/` or
-  `/s/css`, answers 404 instead of a listing of its files (closes #286).
-- 2026-10-15: a notification endpoint that answers with a redirect, or any
-  status other than 2xx, is a failed delivery, retried and logged (closes #287).
-- 2026-10-15: a nameserver is asked at each of its IPv4 addresses in turn, so it
-  has failed only when none of them gives a usable reply (closes #285).
-- 2026-10-15: the log names a notification endpoint (`slack`, `mattermost`,
-  `ntfy`) and never shows its URL's path or query (closes #288).
 - 2026-10-13: a hostname or a domain whose zone's nameservers all stop answering
   gets an NS Failure for each, then an NS Recovery (closes #284).
