fix: retry failed model inspections and preserve rejection evidence

Do not cache transient repository-list failures as empty weight sets.
Deduplicate normalized file paths without lowering reported file sizes.
Record whitelisted OOM evidence and bounded discovery diagnostics.

+Repository-tree HTTP failures are reported as retriable inspection failures,

+(using the largest reported size for that path), while different weight formats

 Community deduplication is scoped to the exact model/GPU combination. A model
 adapted on one GPU remains eligible for another GPU. Before each submission the
 worker performs an uncached community check; a lookup failure defers the task
