Do not convert a failed stat into size zero.

When resolve_file_stat cannot stat the file, seekable remains unset. resolve_size then sets self.size to 0, so a negative-bound slice() becomes a zero-length file-backed Blob and reports incorrect bounds. Distinguish stat failure from an empty file and return a recoverable error when slice() requires the file size.

The later read still uses the file path because needs_to_read_file() is true for every file store, so this does not suppress the eventual read error. The size and slice metadata are still incorrect.

Review comment at @src/runtime/webcore/Blob.rs at line 1772:
Update the size-resolution path used by `slice()` so a failed
`resolve_file_stat` remains distinguishable from a valid empty file; when a
slice requires the file size, return a recoverable error instead of letting
`resolve_size` set `self.size` to zero. Preserve zero size for successfully
statted empty files.
