fix(issue-17): resume closes herdr 0.9.3's placeholder for a removed directory

With the cwd premise fixed, test_b still failed on herdr 0.9.3: a pane whose
saved directory is gone is restored as a placeholder - `restore_error`
"Saved directory is unavailable...", no process - and `pane process-info`
answers pane_not_found. close_restored_shells raised on it and exited 1
before looking at the other panes, so the resumed session's removed-worktree
pane (the case #45 closes on herdr 0.9.1, where it is a shell in $HOME) was
left behind.

Such a pane has nothing running, so it now meets condition 4. Only that
exact answer counts - restore_error set AND pane_not_found; any other
process-info failure still stops the run with exit 1 as before.

Tests: test_issue45_restore.py passes on herdr 0.9.3 (5/5). Unit tests with a
stub herdr: the placeholder is closed (fails at 56d0bfd); pane_not_found
without restore_error, or restore_error with another error, still raises.
