librelad 089ac8827c network: allocate ports the host isn't already listening on
portFindNextAvailablePort consulted LibrePortal's own network_resources table
plus a hardcoded list (8080, 6060) and CFG_RESERVED_PORTS_EXTRA — while the
comment above it claimed a picked port "can never collide with a host service at
compose-up time". It can: the list only covers what someone thought to write
down. Ask the kernel instead, via ss, read once per allocation rather than per
candidate. No ss => empty set => exactly the old behaviour.

Found while restoring 13 apps onto a desktop, though not the cause there:
stoat's livekit publishes a FIXED udp range (50000-50100, which it advertises to
clients and so cannot be re-rolled), and kdeconnectd held 50016. That collision
needs its own answer; this fixes the randomly-allocated ports, which had the
same exposure with no reason to.

Also make the bulk restore stop reporting a half-running app as a clean success.
continue-on-error lets a failed compose-up log and carry on, so restoreAppStart
returns 0 either way — which is how that run printed "13 apps restored" while
four of stoat's containers had exited 101. checkSuccess already appends every
failure to error_report.log, so watch it grow across each app and name the ones
that were noisy.

scripts/dev/lp-port-host-test binds a real socket and asserts the allocator
refuses that port; verified it fails when the check is removed.
