Chris Lu 1c9039d3ac fix(seaweed-volume): stop EC shard deletion from phantom .dat on restart (#9874)
* fix(seaweed-volume): stop EC shard deletion from phantom .dat on restart

On startup load_existing_volumes() scans .vif/.idx entries (not just
.dat). For distributed EC, a volume's .vif can be mirrored onto a disk
whose .ecx lives on a sibling disk, so the per-disk ecx check is false
and the loader falls through to Volume::new, which always creates the
.dat if missing -> a phantom 8-byte superblock stub. The store-level
prune_incomplete_ec_with_sibling_dat then treats that stub as the
authoritative source and deletes the real EC shards on sibling disks. Go
guards the same case (disk_location.go: 'Without this guard NewVolume
below would create a phantom empty .dat') but only same-disk.

Fix A (root cause): in load_existing_volumes, don't create a .dat during
load. Skip the entry when there is no local .dat AND the .vif does not
reference remote files -- remote-tiered volumes have no local .dat but
must still load via the remote path. Uses the robust check_dat_file_exists
helper so a transient stat error doesn't skip a real volume. New volumes
go through create_volume(). Covers the cross-disk .vif/.ecx split Go's
same-disk hasEcxFile() misses.

Fix B (defense in depth, Go + Rust): when the EC .vif records no source
size (dat_file_size==0), require the sibling .dat to be strictly larger
than a bare superblock, so an empty 8-byte stub can't pass the
credibility gate. Previously it fell back to SUPER_BLOCK_SIZE, which an
8-byte stub exactly meets.

Adds regression tests reproducing the cross-disk lone-.vif phantom and
the 8-byte stub gate; updates an existing prune test to use a real
collection so its .ecx lookup matches the loaders.

* fix(storage): don't create phantom .dat from lone .vif on Go volume load

Mirror Fix A on the Go side. loadExistingVolume scans .vif/.idx entries,
and for distributed EC a .vif can be mirrored onto a disk whose .ecx is
on a sibling disk. The same-disk hasEcxFile() guard does not fire there,
so the loader falls through to NewVolume(createDatIfMissing=true) and
writes an 8-byte phantom .dat, which the sibling-.dat prune then uses to
delete the real EC shards on sibling disks. Skip the entry when there is
no local .dat AND the .vif has no remote file (via MaybeLoadVolumeInfo);
remote-tiered volumes have no local .dat but must still load.

Adds TestLoneVifDoesNotCreatePhantomDat (fails without the guard) and
TestRemoteTier_DiskScanLoadsRemoteOnlyVolume (fails if the guard skips a
remote-only volume).
