fix(the-workshop): add HTTP error boundary and make workshop detection non-terminal

Two follow-up review findings:
- signals-dashboard: the async createServer callback had no top-level
  error boundary, so a malformed %-encoded path, a stash write on a
  read-only workshop, or a scan failure rejected a promise the server
  never awaits — hanging the request and risking an unhandled-rejection
  crash. Wrap the handler and return a controlled 500.
- workshop-create: Path A treated finding a marker (desks/, CAIRN.md,
  etc.) as 'just use it', an early stop that left partially initialized
  workshops incomplete. Make it detection-only and continue scaffolding
  whatever is missing, per the 'only add what's missing' principle.
