fix(handlers): add rows.Err() checks to Resolve handler and scanInstructions

Root cause of CI failure at 0c152a24: the Resolve handler's rows.Next()
loop and scanInstructions both lacked rows.Err() checks after the loop.
Without rows.Err(), a database scan error (e.g. connection drop mid-stream)
is silently ignored and the handler returns an incomplete or empty result
set — a data-integrity bug in the same class as CWE-78.

Fixes:
- Resolve handler: rows.Err() check after rows.Next() loop, logs workspaceID
  and error for diagnostics
- scanInstructions: added Err() error to interface constraint and rows.Err()
  check after loop, logs scan errors

Also applies the correct test mock expectations from origin/main
(commits 7b3e3fc1 + 420ac2f0) so CI is reproducible locally.
