Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported oxide --debug disk import command and trace the disk-import path associated with the shown SendError and channel closed output. Done means identifying the underlying failure and making the CLI provide more context about it.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

This is reproducible for me right now:

$ oxide --debug disk import --path debian-11-genericcloud-amd64.raw --disk debian-boo --project test-project --description debian --snapshot debian-import --image debian --image-description debian --image-os debian --image-version 11
[00:00:00] [█░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░] 119.00 MiB/2.00 GiB (833.21 MiB/s, 2s)sending chunk to thread failed with SendError { .. }
channel closed

I have not yet determined what the underlying cause is. It'd be helpful if the CLI gave more context about what happened here.
