What changes were proposed in this pull request?

After HDDS-15480 (#10431) landed, the premature-stream-completion / null-poll() NPE is fixed. One independent bug remains in StreamBlockInputStream.StreamingReader.onNext(), in the catch block that handles a failure while processing a response (for example a checksum mismatch):

1. It builds a hex preview with data.substring(0, 10), which throws IndexOutOfBoundsException when the payload is shorter than 10 bytes. That secondary exception replaces the real failure.
2. It dereferences getResponse() (r.getRequestObserver().onError(e)) before the real failure is recorded, and getResponse() can be null if the failure happens before the streaming read response is registered, producing an NPE that again masks the original cause.
3. setFailed(e) is called after the logging/observer work, so any exception thrown above prevents the real error from ever being recorded.

Changes

• Call setFailed(e) first so the real failure is always recorded before any log or observer call can throw.
• Build the log preview with the existing StringUtils.bytes2Hex(ByteBuffer, int) overload, which clamps to 10 bytes and appends ... on overflow, instead of the unguarded data.substring(0, 10).
• Null-guard getResponse() before invoking onError.

This PR originally also fixed the premature-completion / null-poll() NPE, which overlapped with #10431. That overlap is now merged on master via HDDS-15480, so this PR is rebased down to just the onNext() error-handling fix.

How was this patch tested?

• Added new unit tests in TestStreamBlockInputStream
  • testChecksumFailureOnShortPayloadSurfacesRealError: a checksum failure on a sub-10-byte payload surfaces the real OzoneChecksumException rather than IndexOutOfBoundsException.
  • testChecksumFailureBeforeResponseRegistered: a failure before the response is registered no longer NPEs on a null response.
  • testStreamCompletedMidReadWithEmptyQueueSurfacesEof: read surfaces EOF (not NPE) when the stream completes mid-read with a drained queue.

Pull request overview

Fixes edge cases in the HDDS client streaming read path where premature gRPC stream completion and failures inside onNext() could previously surface as NullPointerException / IndexOutOfBoundsException, masking the real failure and bypassing intended error propagation.

Changes:

• Treat “stream completed + response queue drained” as a clean “no more data” signal in the streaming reader to avoid NPEs during reads.
• Harden onNext() failure handling to (a) record the real failure first, (b) safely build a short payload preview, and (c) avoid dereferencing a possibly-null StreamingReadResponse.
• Add unit tests covering premature completion mid-read and checksum-failure paths (including short payloads and failure-before-response-registration timing).

File	Description
hadoop-hdds/client/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdds/scm/storage/StreamBlockInputStream.java	Prevents NPE on drained queue after stream completion and makes onNext() error handling robust (no masking exceptions, null-safe observer signaling).
hadoop-hdds/client/src/test/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdds/scm/storage/TestStreamBlockInputStream.java	Adds targeted unit tests to reproduce and validate the fixed premature-completion and checksum-failure scenarios.

I think this partly duplicates #10431 (HDDS-15480).

Thanks @adoroszlai . I will update this once #10431 is merged.
