The backend is dropping this field and libsession follows. It carried no actionable information: a single count of "some number of backend errors happened at some unspecified past time", with no what, no when, and nothing a client could do in response. Parsing it only added a way for the response to fail.

@jagerman jagerman changed the title Drop error_report from get_pro_status (PFS) Drop error_report from get_pro_status Aug 3, 2026
Replace the manual skip_until + consume_string_view + explicit size
checks with require<>/require_span<>/maybe<>, which fold presence and
size/type validation into the accessor. Build the verification buffer
with reserve+insert instead of resize+memcpy (identical bytes; also
drops the spurious -Wstringop-overflow warning on the memcpy).

Records dev up to 947d72a as merged, keeping pfs's tree unchanged (-s ours).
The only PR in the range, #112 (drop-error-report), is already applied to pfs
via #113 drop-error-report-pfs; nothing needed forward-porting.

#113 is a faithful adaptation rather than a straight pick, so its commits have
different patch-ids: it carries the same six files, differing only in pfs's
unsigned char -> std::byte types, the resulting drop of an ed_pk.first<32>()
now that require_span is fixed-extent, and each branch removing its own
pre-existing form of the two size-error messages.  Verified by outcome:
error_report is absent from both branches, both parse decrypt_group_message
through the bt_dict_consumer require/maybe helpers, and seed_payment.py is
identical on both.
