[DABs] config-remote-sync: handle replace/remove against a missing YAML parent or key

[ilyakuz-db]

Changes

bundle config-remote-sync failed to write a remote change back to YAML when the field's key or parent path was absent from the target file, with op replace ...: parent path /resources does not exist or key run_if does not exist and can not be replaced. The missing-parent creation retry only ran for add ops, so a replace or remove against an absent path hard-failed.

Now, when a replace can't find its target on any candidate path, it retries as an add (landing in the candidate whose parent exists, and creating a missing parent when needed); a remove whose target is already absent is a no-op.

Why

This case never worked since config-remote-sync shipped: edits to fields not yet present in the YAML (e.g. under a target override, or a task field like run_if) aborted the whole sync.

Tests

Table-driven unit test for applyChange covering the missing-/resources parent, missing-key, remove-no-op, and target-block-placement cases. Reverting the fix reproduces the exact production error strings. The full config-remote-sync acceptance suite passes unchanged.
