// Issue #1163: the local import path must fetch and decode each pending chunk
// once, sharing the decoded value between session dependency classification
// and apply, while keeping every observable import behavior unchanged. These
// tests drive the real local Import() flow over a FileTransport wrapped only to
// count ReadChunk calls; one json.Unmarshal follows every successful read, so
// the read count is a faithful proxy for decode work. Import is sequential, so
// the counter needs no locking.

Test recovery after a failed partial import.

The hook currently fails chunk-flaky once, then succeeds during the same Import() call. This does not cover replay after an earlier chunk commits and a later chunk causes Import() to return an error.

Make chunk-steady fail on every apply attempt until the first Import() returns. Restore the hook, call Import() again, and assert that chunk-flaky is not applied again and that the second call imports chunk-steady once.

Update the import recovery test hook so applying chunk-steady fails on every
attempt during the first Import call, causing Import to return an error after
chunk-flaky has committed. Restore the original hook, call Import again, and
assert chunk-flaky is not reapplied and chunk-steady is imported once.
