Pin the HTTP target's unpinned error checks (closes #285)

Seven error checks in internal/delivery/target_http.go could be removed without any test noticing, among them withRetry's check on writing the delivery result, the branch that leaves a sent delivery retrying and recoverable when its bookkeeping write fails. Each now fails a test when removed. The "send succeeded" case starts from a tripped circuit breaker, so a probe whose send succeeds but whose result write fails must still close the breaker. The checks in remainingBackoff and backoffElapsed stay unpinned: removing them gives the same answer, and they state a rule a reader needs. Test change only. Model: opus-5-5
