Markus Hilger c0bc33e494 Report syncfiles failures instead of discarding them ...

get_syncresult() caught the sync task's exception, logged a repr server
side and returned 200 OK with a null body.  The node then called
.get('options') on that null resulted in:

  c1: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get'

and syncfileclient still exited 0 as if syncing had succeeded.

Return the error to the requestor as a 500 with an error payload.  On
the node, unwrap the body that grab_url_with_status raises for a
non-success status, print it once and exit non-zero.  Only a failure the
server deliberately reported for this sync is terminal. Anything else,
such as a dropped connection, is re-raised so the existing retry loop
handles it as before.  The same case now reports

  c1: Error performing syncfiles: Syncing failed due to unreadable files: /etc/dangling.conf
  c1: 'syncfileclient' exited with code 1
