fix(upload): refuse undecodable images at the door, and stop retrying them
Two halves of the same complaint: an oversized photo was accepted with a 201 and then silently soft-deleted minutes later, after the worker had burned six seconds of backoff re-reaching a conclusion it could not change. Admission. The compression budget now runs at upload time, against the header only, so a guest is told immediately and told why: "Bild hat zu viele Bildpunkte (ca. 99 Megapixel) und kann nicht verarbeitet werden. Bitte verkleinere es und lade es erneut hoch." instead of watching the photo vanish behind a vague "could not be processed" — which arrived only if they happened to still be on the feed with that card loaded. Nothing is stored, so there is no row to soft-delete and no orphan for the sweep to reclaim. Admission and the worker share ONE function (`decoder_within_budget`), so they cannot drift apart and start disagreeing about what is acceptable — a photo accepted at the door and rejected by the worker would be worse than either behaviour alone. The worker keeps its own check: the backfill decodes files that predate this check, and defence in depth is the whole reason the budget exists. Retries. The loop retried every failure, including ones that are a property of the input. An image over the budget, a corrupt file, an unsupported format: each fails identically on all three attempts, so the only effect was 2s + 4s of sleep and three near-identical warnings before the same outcome. `is_permanent_image_error` classifies the `ImageError` variants that cannot change between attempts — Limits, Unsupported, Decoding — and the loop gives up on those at once. `IoError` is deliberately excluded: an ENOSPC while writing a derivative is exactly the transient case the retry exists for, and misclassifying it would turn a blip back into the data loss round 1 fixed. Measured: retry log lines went from 3 per oversized upload to 0. Tests: unit tests for both sides of the classifier (a Limits error is permanent, a missing file is not) and for admission agreeing with the decoder on accept AND reject. The e2e spec is rewritten for the new contract — 400 with an actionable message, nothing stored, backend alive after a burst of four — plus a mirror asserting an ordinary photo still uploads and processes, since a budget that rejected everything would satisfy the other two.
