Follow-up to PR #814 review.
NatsStatusSubscriber.run() called task_status.started() *after* the fallible
pull_subscribe, so a NATS broker that wasn't ready when the MCP server started
would crash the lifespan instead of retrying. Bus status is a non-critical
observability path, so:
- signal started() before the first subscribe (semantics: "loop is running",
not "subscription succeeded");
- retry a failed subscribe with backoff instead of propagating;
- on a real fetch error (not an idle timeout) drop the subscription and
re-subscribe rather than fetching against a possibly-dead handle.
Also anchor the _content_hash etag-threading TODO to the PR #814 review thread
so it is discoverable outside git blame.
