Release v1.7.232

Nutzer-Report (ultracode-Diagnose, 6-Agenten): ein Item mit "Fehler: HTTP 416"
(Range Not Satisfiable) wurde gar nicht mehr erneut versucht und blockierte das
ganze Paket ("Entpacken - Ausstehend" bei allen fertigen Geschwistern). Befund
code-belegt: nach dem In-Run-416-Budget (maxHttp416Retries) lief das Item in
einen Endzustand:
- retryLimit>0 (bare "HTTP 416", directLinkRetryMatch=false): direkt terminal
  "failed" (download-manager ~9442). Der einzige Re-Retry-Pfad
  recoverRetryableItems() laeuft NUR bei Boot/Start, nie mid-run -> mit
  autoReconnect=false bleibt es bis zum Neustart "failed". Und da jeder
  Extract-Zweig auf failed===0 gated, friert EIN failed-Item das ganze Paket
  ein -> exakt das Screenshot-Symptom.
- retryLimit=0 (wrapped "direct_link_retry_exhausted:HTTP 416"): faellt nach dem
  416-Budget in den generischen Retry (9349) mit maxGenericErrorRetries=
  MAX_SAFE_INTEGER -> unbegrenzte futile Re-Unrestricts (haemmert den Hoster,
  Item kommt nie weiter).

Fix: bei erschoepftem 416-Budget an BEIDEN Stellen (gewrappt @9320, bare @9442)
nicht mehr terminalisieren bzw. endlos generisch retrien, sondern via neuem
escalateHttp416OrFail() einen kompletten Neu-Download von 0 anstossen: Partial
loeschen (rmSync), Bytes/Progress/Budget zuruecksetzen, mit Delay re-queuen. Da
416 ein abgelehnter Resume-Range ist, ist der korrekte Weg ein frischer
Download ohne Range-Header (kein 416 mehr) statt erneuter Resume. Hart gedeckelt
ueber http416FreshRestartByItem (MAX_HTTP416_FRESH_RESTARTS=2, retryLimit-
unabhaengig) -> ein wirklich toter Link faellt nach begrenzten sauberen
Neustarts terminal, kein Endlos-Hammering. Zaehler wird in start() und beim
terminalen Fail geleert. Fresh-Restart-Delay via RD_HTTP416_FRESH_RESTART_DELAY_MS
testbar.

Sobald das Item den failed-Zustand verlaesst, entsperrt die bestehende
failed===0-Logik das Paket-Entpacken von selbst. (Die optionale Haertung
"fertige Archiv-Sets trotz failed-Geschwister entpacken" + "Voll-Datei-416 als
fertig werten statt neu laden" sind bewusst als Folgeschritt offen.)

Tests: Recovery (416 erschoepft -> Clean-Restart -> Item completed, retryLimit>0
bare) + Bounded-Fail (persistentes 416 -> begrenzte Neustarts -> failed,
retryLimit=0 wrapped, terminiert statt Endlos). Suite 945 gruen, tsc=6.
