Fix intermittent ImageNotFound errors on large image builds caused by EMFILE

[astrobot-houston]

Changes

• emitImageMetadata now uses a concurrency-limited file reader (max 200 simultaneous fs.readFile calls) to prevent exhausting OS file descriptors on projects with tens of thousands of images. Previously, all image imports were read concurrently with no limit, causing EMFILE: too many open files errors — especially after astro check or astro dev already consumed file descriptors.
• Transient I/O errors (EMFILE, ENFILE, EAGAIN, EBUSY) are retried with exponential backoff instead of failing immediately.
• The bare catch that silently swallowed all errors (including EMFILE) is replaced: only ENOENT returns undefined; other errors are re-thrown with the real OS error message. This makes ImageNotFound accurate — it now only fires when the file genuinely doesn't exist.

Closes #17649

Testing

• Added packages/astro/test/units/assets/emit-image-metadata.test.ts covering: undefined id returns undefined, a missing file (ENOENT) returns undefined, and a real JPEG file returns correct width/height/format metadata.

Docs

No docs update needed — this is a build reliability fix with no user-facing API change.
