BLOCKER: an absent mirror whose PARENT directory does not exist on the
destination (a deeper --files-from missing entry, -R or full-mirror layout) was
treated as a hard failure because file_open_secure_parent returned -1 when the
parent was missing. That aborted the whole run, skipped the --delete extras
walk, and tore down an early --delete-before/during connection, contradicting
'missing mirror = no-op / all-missing succeeds'. A parent-open failure is now a
no-op when errno is ENOENT/ENOTDIR (matching file_remove_tree_secure); only a
genuine I/O error fails the run.
Also: an already-absent mirror reached via unlinkat-ENOENT no longer prints
'Deleted: <path>' (a no-op dressed as a deletion); the per-path 'Deleted:' line
is printed only when an entry was actually removed.
