Description

Add a metric to queryd for a query failure from any source. When queryd has an error on a query it needs to update a metric so we can know how often errors are happening for any reason.

Research direction

The issue identifies queryd but no file, entry point, or test. Start by locating queryd's query error paths and the existing metric definitions, then trace how errors from each source are handled. Done means a metric is updated for every query failure and coverage verifies the behavior.
