Do not finalize recovery when the restored PID is unavailable.

A legacy done\n sentinel, malformed data, or a read failure skips monitor recovery here. Line 906 still reports completion, so runRestore does not replay CRIU and Kubernetes never receives workload exit after that workload dies.

Add a safe migration and recovery policy. Do not mark the restore complete unless the monitor can be recovered, or explicitly terminate the placeholder when recovery cannot establish lifecycle monitoring.

In `@agent/internal/controller/controller.go` around lines 897 - 906, Update the
restore-completion handling around readControlSentinelFn and
monitorRestoredProcess so completion is reported only after lifecycle monitoring
is successfully recovered. For legacy, malformed, or unreadable sentinels,
preserve a recovery path that replays CRIU, or explicitly terminate the
placeholder when monitoring cannot be established; do not return the current
successful completion result in those cases.

Kill the placeholder only for confirmed workload exit or zombie state.

ValidateProcessState also returns errors when procfs initialization or stat inspection fails. This branch treats those observation failures as workload death and sends SIGKILL to the placeholder. A transient /proc access failure can therefore terminate a healthy restored workload.

Return a distinguishable exited-or-zombie result from process validation. Log and retry operational inspection errors.
