perf(daemon): memoize the external debug.log miss

When following the debug.log of a node this session did not launch, every
poll re-read the last 2 MB of the file and re-scanned it for the process
banner. If that node logs to its console instead, the banner is never
there, so the full re-scan repeated on every poll for the life of the
process.

- A miss is now remembered by pid and file size: if nothing has changed
  since the last miss, or the file is growing but the backoff has not
  elapsed, the scan is skipped.
- The retry schedule re-scans quickly during a fresh-node grace window
  (the banner flushes a beat after the pid appears) and then backs off
  from 4 s, doubling to a 60 s cap. The memo is cleared on a successful
  tie and when the followed process goes away.

Tests: the retry delay is fast within the grace window and then steps
4, 8, 16 s up to the 60 s cap.
