fix(routes): log and cleanly 500 on unreadable HTML page (#4637)

* fix(routes): serve 404 instead of 500 when an HTML page file is missing

_serve_html_with_nonce opened the HTML file with no error handling, and
callers such as /backgrounds and /login pass their paths in with no
existence check, so a missing or unreadable file raised an unhandled
OSError that surfaced as a 500. Wrap the read and raise HTTPException(404)
instead; the normal render path (CSP-nonce substitution) is unchanged.

Fixes #4594

* fix(routes): distinguish missing page (404) from read failure (500)

The previous fix caught a broad OSError and returned 404 for every
failure, which masks real server-side problems (permission errors, I/O
failures) as "not found" and lets them slip past error alerting. Split
FileNotFoundError (genuine 404) from other OSError, which now logs the
exception and returns a generic 500 — without leaking the OS error
string or file path into the response body.

* fix(routes): treat unreadable bundled HTML page as logged 500, not 404

Per PR #4637 review: every caller of the page-render helper serves a fixed,
server-owned template (index/login/backgrounds), never a client-supplied
path. So a missing or unreadable file is a server fault (broken deployment),
not a client "not found" — a 404 there mislabels a server error and hides a
missing core template from 5xx alerting, contradicting the OSError->500
rationale this PR is built on. Collapse both branches into a single logged,
leak-free 500.

Move the helper to src.app_helpers.serve_html_with_nonce so the behavior can
be unit-tested without importing the whole app (app.py is the slim
orchestrator; the test harness stubs src.database, so importing app in tests
is not viable). Add tests pinning missing/unreadable -> 500 (not 404) and
nonce injection on the happy path.
