stream_chat_completion (and the LLM stream/chat paths) only caught HTTPError, so a
request exceeding request_timeout_s raised a raw TimeoutError mid-stream that escaped
_run_one_request (which only catches HttpClientError), propagated through the probe,
and crashed the whole trial ("failed: timed out"). A timed-out request is a failed
request (SLO miss), not a trial crash. Catch OSError (covers TimeoutError, URLError,
ConnectionError) after HTTPError and wrap it. Exposed by lowering request_timeout_s
to 180s on the 27B run.
