prerequisite for #7371 and #7295
When the pubsub loses database connection (e.g. due to network hiccup), subscribers might miss messages. This currently happens silently, which is bad for applications that use the pubsub as a dependable communication, rather than just a kick to query the database for updates.
This PR enhances the Pubsub to be able to report when messages might have been dropped, so that applications can take some action. In the case of streaming build logs, we'll probably just give up and propagate the error to the HTTP requestor. In the case of the tailnet coordinator, it means we need to resync state.
