Two independent triggers turned the global status chip red while every layer
was still populated (reproduced at JFK in Cockpit; timeline in the issue).
adsb.lol proxy: a non-OK upstream status was relayed verbatim even with a
12 s-old cache in hand, and the browser layer answers a 429 with a 45 s
cooldown in which every refresh reports "adsb.lol rate limited" without a
network call. The proxy now serves its cached body as STALE on a 429/5xx and
backs off from upstream for Retry-After (bounded), mirroring the OpenSky
proxy. A failure with nothing cached is still relayed.
Mapped installations: the "zoom in" guidance was stored in `error`, so the
manager reported a refresh failure and the chip a LOAD FAILED whenever the
view could not be bounded (Cockpit looks at the horizon). The status is now
set without an error string; the row reads the prompt from `statusMessage`,
and the chip ignores `error` for guidance statuses, matching the carve-out
layerFeedState already has.
Use 64-point browser and upstream terrain batches to reduce cold-cache timeouts. Preserve successful chunk results, distinguish absent readings from malformed responses, and reject fabricated zero heights.

Validated with unit/build/format/boundary checks, 108 tracking checks, 5 terrain-outage checks, controlled slow-upstream comparison and live browser checks.
