fix: add comprehensive error logging to GCS and S3 storage adapters

Enhance both GCS and S3 storage adapters with detailed logging to diagnose
why getNode() returns null without error messages on container restart.

Root Cause Identified:
- BOTH storage adapters had silent failure pattern in getNode()
- Outer catch blocks swallowed ALL errors (network, permission, JSON parse, etc.)
- No distinction between "file not found" (expected) vs "actual error" (should throw)
- This caused 100% failure rate on HNSW index rebuild after container restart

Changes to GCS Storage (gcsStorage.ts):
- Add success path logging: load attempt → download → parse → success
- Add error logging at TOP of catch block before any conditional checks
- Log full error details: type, code, message, HTTP status, complete error object
- Log exact GCS path being accessed for debugging path mismatches
- Distinguish 404 (return null) from other errors (throw)
- Properly handle throttling errors

Changes to S3 Storage (s3CompatibleStorage.ts):
- Apply same comprehensive error logging as GCS
- Add success path logging for each operation step
- Add error logging before conditional checks
- Handle S3-specific error format (NoSuchKey, $metadata.httpStatusCode)
- Distinguish 404/NoSuchKey (return null) from other errors (throw)
- Properly handle throttling errors

Expected Outcome:
- Next test run will reveal exact exception causing getNode() to return null
- Same diagnostic capability for both GCS and S3 environments
- Proper error handling prevents silent failures in production
