What
When the background daemon fails to start, the failure now carries a cause: wrapper, ask, spawn, timeout, exited, or the operating system's spawn error code. A child that died is reported separately from one that simply never answered. If the wall clock jumped during a cold start, typically because the machine slept, and the daemon is still unreachable, the whole start is retried once.
Details
Telemetry gains child_exited, exit_code, exit_signal, budget_extended and clock_jump_retry.
Evidence
retrying the whole start once
