+Wrap transport failures in the connector's typed error class.
+
+The clients only wrapped non-2xx responses in `GitHubError`/`GoogleDriveError`; a `fetch()` rejection (DNS failure, timeout, offline) escaped as a raw `TypeError`. Each `fetch` call site now rethrows transport failures as the connector's error type with `status: 0`, so all failures surface through one typed class.
