Preplanner: surface plan failures so the Processing dialog exits

When a plan fails (e.g. AuxPreprocessor Z-A coupling rejection at
planner-load time, or any other gplan error in the plan.py
subprocess), the Plan future was never resolved. PathHandler then
1-second-times-out forever returning {progress:0}, and the JS poll
loop in load_toolpath kept the 'Processing New File' dialog up
indefinitely.

- Preplanner.Plan now records .error and always resolves the future.
- PathHandler returns {progress:1, error:...} when the plan failed.
- load_toolpath closes the dialog and alerts the operator on error,
  and breaks out of the poll loop on api errors instead of looping.
- FileHandler upload-time AuxPreprocessor coupling errors now post a
  visible state message instead of being silently swallowed.
