fix(schema-pack): narrow stats catch-all so masked errors surface, not fake 0 pages (#2466)

fetchCountRows and detectDeadPrefixes in src/core/schema-pack/stats.ts
swallowed EVERY engine error into empty results, so any real failure
printed 'Total pages: 0' + a vacuous 100% coverage on a populated brain.
Both catches now swallow only isUndefinedTableError (pre-init brain,
missing pages table) and rethrow everything else. Four regression tests:
real non-zero count on a populated PGLite brain, rethrow on non-missing-
table errors in both catch sites, and the missing-table degrade path.

Takeover of #2493.
