Two residuals from the cutover-dashboard work, both found in the data the
first pass shipped (0.8.61/0.8.62).

`absent_or_empty` was one label over two different failures: the route
answers `content: ""` both from the `optional=1` shim (nothing resolved at
that path) and for a real 0-byte file. The route now marks the shim with
`missing: true`, and the read path with `missing: false` so the field's
PRESENCE is what tells the client this server draws the distinction — a new
server's empty file would otherwise look exactly like either case from an
old one. Client splits them into `absent` and `empty_file`; a server without
the field still reports `absent_or_empty`, so the existing series stays
honest instead of silently folding into one of the new ones.

Why it is worth splitting: on 0.8.62, 75 tabs hit this class and not one of
them ever landed an SDK edit afterwards — it is terminal for the tab, while
the tab keeps playing back and navigating, so nothing surfaces to the user.
Every measured case with a loaded tree carries `path_in_tree: true`: a file
the tree lists and this read cannot get. Which of the two causes that is
decides the fix, and until now the event could not say.

`res.json()` at the end of the read was unguarded, so a 200 carrying HTML —
an SPA fallback or a proxy answering in the route's place — rejected out of
the function entirely and the effect's outer catch filed it as
`stage: "open"`, which asserts the COMPOSITION failed to parse. Observed in
production on 0.8.62: `Unexpected token '<', "<!-- /*!"... is not valid
JSON`. That is the third label to make the same wrong claim, after the
fetch-rejection split in #4240 and #4269. Now `reason: "invalid_json"` with
the response's content-type.

`path_in_tree` now rides all three empty-read reasons, not just the combined
one, so the split keeps the signal that justified it.

Tests: 4 new (absent / empty_file / combined-label fallback / non-JSON 200)
plus a server test pinning `missing` on both answers. 1172 tests green
across studio hooks + studio-server routes; oxlint, oxfmt, tsc clean.
