fix(runner/scheduler): preserve dependencies on retry (commontoolsinc#1867)

* fix(runner/scheduler): preserve dependencies on retry

When a reactive action's commit fails and retries, preserve its
dependency information instead of overwriting with empty dependencies.
This ensures topological sorting works correctly during retries.

Previously, the retry logic called:
  this.subscribe(action, { reads: [], writes: [] }, true)

This cleared the action's dependencies, breaking topological sorting
when multiple dependent actions retry. The fix directly reschedules
without calling subscribe:
  this.queueExecution()
  this.pending.add(action)

The action retains its correct dependencies from the previous subscribe
call (line 274), allowing the scheduler to properly order retries.

* fix(runner/scheduler): ensure dependencies are set on retry

The previous fix attempted to preserve dependencies by not calling
subscribe() during retry. However, this caused a crash because:

1. execute() calls unsubscribe() which deletes the action from dependencies
2. The retry logic then adds action to pending without re-adding to dependencies
3. topologicalSort() tries to access dependencies.get(action) which is undefined

The solution is to call subscribe(action, log, true) during retry, which:
- Re-adds the action to dependencies with the correct read/write log
- Adds the action to pending (via scheduleImmediately parameter)
- Ensures topologicalSort has access to the action's dependencies

Error fixed:
TypeError: Cannot destructure property 'writes' of 'dependencies.get(...)'
as it is undefined at topologicalSort (scheduler.ts:576:13)
