fix(ec.decode): purge EC shards when volume is empty (#7749)HEADorigin/masterorigin/HEADmaster

* fix(ec.decode): purge EC shards when volume is empty

When an EC volume has no live entries (all deleted), ec.decode should not generate an empty normal volume. Instead, treat decode as a no-op and allow shard purge to proceed cleanly.\n\nFixes: #7748

* chore: address PR review comments

* test: cover live EC index + avoid magic string

* chore: harden empty-EC handling

- Make shard cleanup best-effort (collect errors)\n- Remove unreachable EOF handling in HasLiveNeedles\n- Add empty ecx test case\n- Share no-live-entries substring between server/client\n

* perf: parallelize EC shard unmount/delete across locations

* refactor: combine unmount+delete into single goroutine per location

* refactor: use errors.Join for multi-error aggregation

* refactor: use existing ErrorWaitGroup for parallel execution

* fix: capture loop variables + clarify SuperBlockSize safety
