During incremental invalidation, references from surviving files may be consumed by delete-phase resolution where their target doesn't exist yet. Without pushing them back to pending_work, they're dropped permanently and never retried after the re-add phase recreates the target.

Summary
Found by the incremental consistency testing tool.
unit_queuelives on the Resolver (ephemeral), whilepending_worklives on Graph (persists acrossresolve()calls). With incremental invalidation, items can be temporarily unresolvable — e.g. a reference from a surviving file whose target was just deleted but will be re-added.unit_queueitems back topending_workviaGraph#extend_workat the end ofresolve()so they're retried on the next call.
