Classifies a transport-level failure (connection refused or dropped, DNS
failure, timeout, TLS negotiation failure).
Always normal: in an all-HTTPS system every transport error surfaces through
the TLS layer, so a certificate misconfiguration cannot be reliably
distinguished from a transient network fault, and treating transient faults
as unexpected would hold ordinary recoveries to multi-minute waits.
