Maniphest Tasks: T13552: "Close Revision" actions are executed by the Message worker, and do not execute if a previously discovered commit becomes reachable from a permanent branch
T13569: When running worker tasks in-process, subtasks which fail incorrectly cause the parent tasks to fail

Summary

Ref T13552. Fixes T13569. Currently, if a process uses in-process tasks (usually, a debugging/diagnostic workflow) and those tasks (or tasks those tasks queue) fail permanently, the exception escapes to top level and the process exits.

This isn't desirable; catch the exception and fail them locally instead.

Test Plan

With a failing Asana integration and misconfigured Webhook, ran bin/repository reparse --publish ....

Before: fatals on each substep.
After: warnings emitted for failed substep, but process completes.
