### Fixed — the warm-soak arm reported a client timeout as an #8163 residual

`run_warm_soak` (added in #8215) counted non-zero `verify.mjs` exits instead of
classifying them, and printed `#8163 residual` for every one. Two very different
things produce that exit: the residual, where the server returns an **empty body**
(`Unexpected end of JSON input`, plus `TypeError: value is not a function` and
Next's `E180` in the host log), and a **client timeout** (`UND_ERR_HEADERS_TIMEOUT`),
where the server was merely slow and its log is clean.

The second happens on its own in the saturated regime the arm exists to reach — in
the #8163 close-condition run, 12 passes lost requests to client timeouts, all
inside collection storms (one pass ran **644** copying minors against a steady 84),
while the three residual discriminators were **0 across 10,995 collections**. So the
arm manufactured false residual reports exactly where it was most likely to be used,
and #8163 is closed, so the next reader would have concluded it had regressed.

It now classifies from the evidence already in the host log: an empty body fails the
arm as the residual; a timeout with a clean host log is reported loudly with the
offending pass's collection count and attributed to #8213 (a warm server slow enough
to blow a default HTTP client timeout is a user-visible failure, but it is not this
arm's subject, and failing on it would make the arm unusable in the regime it exists
to reach); anything unrecognised fails with "do not assume a cause".

The arm was written so a *green* run could not imply more than it proved. Its first
real failure was the mirror image — a *red* verdict that was not true. A gate that
cannot be trusted when it goes red is as useless as one that cannot go red at all.

Classify Next E180 as residual evidence.

The current expression does not match E180. A failed pass that emits only the Next E180 host-log signature enters other_passes and is reported as unclassified instead of #8163 residual. Add the exact E180 text used by the host-log tests. This conflicts with the PR objective that Next E180 signatures fail as #8163 residuals.

Restrict timeout classification to known, clean timeout evidence.

UND_ERR_[A-Z_]+ also matches non-timeout Undici errors. This branch also does not verify that the host-log evidence is clean. A real host failure combined with a transport error can be reported as #8213 and allow the arm to pass instead of failing as unclassified. Whitelist the exact timeout signatures emitted by verify.mjs and reject the timeout classification when unrelated host errors are present. This follows the PR objectives to avoid broad grep patterns and to fail on unrecognized evidence.

Update the timeout-classification branch in the release fixture so it matches
only the exact timeout signatures emitted by verify.mjs, rather than the broad
UND_ERR_[A-Z_]+ pattern. Before adding to timeout_passes, validate that the
host-log evidence contains no unrelated errors; otherwise classify the pass as
other_passes so unrecognized or mixed failures cannot pass as timeout cases.

Report the actual residual evidence.

The failure text always says that residual passes had an empty body, although the residual branch also covers host TypeError and should cover Next E180. The global type_errors count can also produce 0 pass(es) with a residual failure. Track the evidence reason per pass, or use neutral wording such as “residual evidence” and list the affected passes. This follows the PR objective to name affected passes.
