Description
Expired pending LNbits invoices can remain in the oldest pending polling batch forever when LNbits returns 404. This marks them expired only when the local invoice is already past expiresAt and the processor returns 404.
Generic processor/network errors still keep the invoice pending, and paid invoices remain completed even if their expiry timestamp has passed.

Motivation and Context
The maintenance worker polls the oldest 10 pending invoices every minute. Stale invoices that LNbits has already purged (404) were being retried forever, blocking newer paid invoices from being reconciled.
How Has This Been Tested?
Added unit tests covering all four edge cases:
EXPIRED; paid + past expiry → stillCOMPLETEDCommands run locally:
Result: 36 passing, build clean, lint clean.
