Failures installing the fast, non-blocking stdout writer now log more detail and report telemetry once per reason

What

Claude Code uses a fast, non-blocking way of writing to the terminal's standard output when possible. When that setup fails to install, the log message now includes the specific system error code (errno) instead of a generic message. A new 'skipped' telemetry event is also sent, but only once per distinct failure reason (duplicates are filtered out), alongside the existing 'installed' event that already reported successes.

Why
