A malformed `@timeout` or `@retry` aborts the run without running `tear_down_after_script`

Summary

A malformed # @timeout or # @retry annotation aborts the run with exit 1 from inside call_test_functions. set_up_before_script has already run, and tear_down_after_script never does.

Same defect as #1322, one code path over: that issue is the bench runner's @revs/@its validation, this is the test runner's @timeout/@retry validation. Found while fixing #1322, kept separate because the two runners abort from different frames.

Current behavior

The annotation error prints, the run exits 1, and the file's teardown hook is skipped. Both modes leak: sequentially call_test_functions runs in the main shell, and under --parallel the hook now runs inside the worker (#1320), which the same exit 1 kills.

How to reproduce

annot_test.sh:

function set_up_before_script() { : >"$ANNOT_MARKER.setup"; }
function tear_down_after_script() { : >"$ANNOT_MARKER.RAN_TEARDOWN"; }

# @timeout abc
function test_bad_annotation() { assert_true true; }

$ ANNOT_MARKER=/tmp/bu-annot ./bashunit --no-parallel annot_test.sh
Error: @timeout 'abc' above test_bad_annotation in annot_test.sh is not a non-negative integer.

$ ls /tmp/bu-annot.*
/tmp/bu-annot.setup

RAN_TEARDOWN is absent. --parallel behaves the same. # @retry abc takes the same path.

Expected behavior

The annotation error still aborts the run with a non-zero status, and tear_down_after_script runs for the file whose setup already ran.

Where it happens

• src/helper/annotations.sh:124: _annotations_reject ends in exit 1
• Reached from bashunit::helper::annotations_validate_or_exit (src/helper/annotations.sh:93)
• Called from src/runner/exec.sh:134, inside call_test_functions, before any test runs

Acceptance criteria

• An acceptance test for each of @timeout and @retry with a bad value, asserting the file's tear_down_after_script released its resource, under --no-parallel and --parallel.
• The error message text and the non-zero exit code are unchanged. Existing annotation-validation coverage still passes.
• CHANGELOG.md gets a Fixed entry.

Notes for the implementer

• bashunit::runner::run_pending_file_teardown and mark_file_teardown_pending landed in src/runner/hooks.sh with --stop-on-failure skips tear_down_after_script in sequential runs #1321 and are the primitive for this. The test loop already marks the debt at src/runner/discovery.sh:215, so sequentially the abort path only has to settle it.
• Under --parallel the debt is cleared in the parent right after dispatch, so the worker cannot read it. The worker's own frame has to run the hook before it exits.
• Prefer returning non-zero up to a frame that can finish the file over exiting from inside the validator. The reason the exit exists at all is Malformed benchmark annotations are silently ignored #884: a silently defaulted annotation runs a different test than the one asked for. Keep that.
• Bash 3.0+ only. See .claude/rules/bash-style.md.
• make sa, make lint, ./bashunit tests/, ./bashunit --parallel tests/.
