Fix intermittent extraction failures, and stop them being silent
Bug report: extraction failed on one 1500days.com article while others worked. It is not that article. Extraction was racing the page load, and the report could say nothing more because the app discarded the reason. Two separate defects. 1. The race. onPageFinished fires before the page has finished loading — observed at progress=25 on this article — and the extraction script was injected there. Sometimes the DOM is far enough along; sometimes evaluateJavascript hands back a bare "null" because the document is still being replaced. Measured against the reported URL: 4 successes in 6 attempts before, 10 in 10 after. An unusable result is no longer final. A null or empty-content result is retried (6 attempts, 500ms apart, well inside the existing 25s timeout); a Readability error still fails immediately, since retrying will not change what the parser thinks of the markup. 2. The silence. ReaderScreen did `extracted?.content?.let { }`, so every failure — dead host, HTTP error, timeout, parser throw — arrived as the same null and was dropped. The reader just kept showing raw feed content. The only way a failure ever surfaced was the user noticing. extractResult() now returns a typed ExtractionFailure carrying the reason; ReaderScreen logs the diagnostic and shows the user a short explanation. Also replaced a dead error callback. The only override was the four-argument onReceivedError, which Android stopped calling at API 23; minSdk is 26, so it never fired on any supported device. A failed load therefore invoked nothing and hung for the full 25 seconds before surfacing as an indistinguishable null. Now overrides the request/error and onReceivedHttpError forms Android actually calls, both filtered to the main frame so a 404'd tracker cannot abort an article that renders fine. The instrumented test does NOT reproduce the race and says so in its own docstring: a MockWebServer page finishes loading before onPageFinished fires, and slow subresources do not help because WebView waits for them. It is kept as a reliability guard over repeated back-to-back extractions. The race was verified by hand against the live URL. 47 unit tests, 1 instrumented test, both green.
