Shane McGovern d59a9522ee Fix mod update checks failing on non-JSON responses (#931)
The mod update and Find Mods feeds feed the raw HTTP body straight to
Json.decode. When the endpoint hands back something that is not JSON
(an HTML error page, a proxy/captive prompt, or a plain-text outage
message like "Exceeded secondary rate limit" -- usually still HTTP 200),
the decoder's "unexpected character 'E'" assert escaped through the
pcall and became the error message, blaming the parser instead of the
response.

Add Json.describeUnexpected() as a pre-decode content-type guard: it
returns nil for body shapes the endpoints actually publish (JSON object
or array) and otherwise a short message naming what the server sent
(HTML page / plain text / empty, with a preview). Wire it into
ModUpdate.parseReleases and ModIndex.parse, so both the sync and async
update-check paths surface the real answer instead of the parse error.
HTTP status was already checked upstream by HostShell.httpGet (non-2xx
becomes "HTTP <code> from <url> (...)"); this closes the remaining
"2xx but not JSON" gap everywhere, including bridge platforms that
expose no status or headers.

Add regression tests for plain-text, HTML, and empty bodies; strengthen
the ModIndex HTML soft-fail test.
