Description

This change allows users with `MANAGE_REQUESTS` permissions to edit `FAILED` requests. This change builds on the work in seerr-team#3461 by giving those requests that would otherwise be stuck a repair route.

This change auto-resubmits a FAILED request upon edit of the serverId field and guards against selecting another stale server. If a user edits another field that isn't serverId it does not auto resubmit for Retry.

This expanded ability to edit was done by expanding the PENDING-only guard to include FAILED for MANAGE_REQUESTS permission holders only.

AI Disclosure: Claude Code helped write the tests, I verified them and ensured that they were testing the targeted paths.

How Has This Been Tested?

Adds handleUnresolvedServer which marks a request as failed if the server that was set for the
request was deleted after the request was made.
