fix: reconcile < target severity and rmtree symlink guard (v0.5.10)

- reconcile.py: re-escalate the < target branch from INFO to WARNING and
  add 'permanently unmapped' label. Both post-loop branches produce identical
  permanent mapping loss; v0.5.9 incorrectly treated the timeout case as
  recoverable.

- executor.py: guard shutil.rmtree with 'not os.path.islink(person_dir)'
  so a race-replaced symlink-to-directory is skipped rather than raising
  an unhandled OSError that aborts all remaining jobs. Correct comment:
  rmtree raises OSError, not NotADirectoryError.

+- **Reconcile `< target` branch re-escalated to WARNING**: when fewer Frigate files appear than expected after the full backoff window, the affected files are permanently unmapped — identical in consequence to the `> target` (external upload race) case fixed in v0.5.9. The v0.5.9 demotion to `INFO` was incorrect; both post-loop branches now log at `WARNING` and include the "permanently unmapped" label.
+
+- **`execute_jobs` symlink guard added before `shutil.rmtree`**: `os.path.isdir` follows symlinks and returns `True` for a symlink pointing at a directory. If a race condition replaces `person_dir` with such a symlink, the old guard would pass and `shutil.rmtree` would raise an unhandled `OSError`, aborting all remaining jobs in the batch. The guard is now `os.path.isdir(person_dir) and not os.path.islink(person_dir)`, so a symlink-to-directory is silently skipped. The comment is also corrected: `shutil.rmtree` raises `OSError` (not `NotADirectoryError`) on a top-level symlink.
