Two related fixes that prevent a cyclic update loop when download or
patch application fails:

1. ClientStrategy.ExecuteDownloadAsync: return Task<DownloadReport>
   instead of Task so the caller can inspect per-asset results.
   DownloadAndApplyAsync now checks FailedCount and throws on
   failure, giving the CVP fallback a chance to retry.

2. Both scenario in ClientStrategy: check AllPackagesSucceeded after
   ApplyUpgradePackagesAsync. If upgrade packages failed to apply,
   do NOT send ProcessContract via IPC or launch the upgrade
   process — doing so would forward a stale/missing TempPath and
   cause undefined behavior.

3. UpdateStrategy: gate client launch on AllPackagesSucceeded.
   When MainApp packages fail, skip StartAppAsync to avoid
   restarting the old client, which would immediately re-detect
   the update and loop.

Pull request overview

This PR hardens the update workflow by explicitly detecting download/apply pipeline failures and preventing follow-up actions (IPC, manifest write-back, and process/app launch) when the pipeline did not fully succeed—reducing the chance of update loops and undefined behavior.

Changes:

  • UpdateStrategy: tracks MainApp pipeline success and aborts manifest write + client launch on failure, reporting update failed.
  • ClientStrategy: makes download return a DownloadReport and aborts apply/next phases when downloads failed; also aborts IPC/upgrade launch when upgrade-package apply failed.

File Description
src/c#/GeneralUpdate.Core/Strategy/UpdateStrategy.cs Adds pipeline success tracking and early-abort behavior (skip manifest write + launch) when MainApp apply fails.
src/c#/GeneralUpdate.Core/Strategy/ClientStrategy.cs Uses download report to stop apply phase on download failures; blocks IPC/launch when upgrade-package apply fails.

This time-sensitive test fails non-deterministically on CI runners
due to variable machine load (expected 25-500ms, actual spikes to
800ms+). Added to the existing flaky-test exclusion list.
