Wait output for a recoverable child failure tells the parent to spawn one successor with the same brief. The standing orchestration rule still refused any identical brief, so Skywalker would refuse the spawn the marker asks for.

Implements CL-8978: a worker that fails after returning an id with a transient provider fault (retryable/timeout/429-overload) now settles wait-terminal failed with a machine-readable continuable marker plus single-successor guidance, instead of leaving the parent idle-with-fleet or stall-aborting.
What changed:
No auto-retry added; credential/quota/context-overflow handling untouched.
Fixes CL-8978
