When a Docker container with the same name already exists (e.g., from a
previous crashed GNS3 session), Docker returns a 409 Conflict error
when trying to create a new container with that name. This causes the
project open operation to fail.
This fix adds automatic cleanup of stale containers when encountering
a name conflict:
- Added DockerHttp409Error exception class
- Updated http_query to detect 409 status codes
- Modified create() to remove conflicting containers and retry
Fixes the issue where opening a project fails with:
"Docker has returned an error: 409 Conflict. The container name
'/GNS3.xxx' is already in use by container 'xxx'"
Previously the disconnected compute check ran after open(), which would
block for 120s trying to connect to unreachable remote computes before
rejecting the deletion. Now reads the topology file directly to extract
compute IDs and checks connectivity before calling open(), enabling
immediate rejection of deletions involving offline computes.
Also removes the redundant post-open() check since the early check
covers both opened and closed project states.

The run() cleanup block was guarded by `except (ConnectionError, OSError):`,
so exits via asyncio.CancelledError or any other exception type skipped
cleanup. Result: `_reader_process` stays pinned to the dead reader and
`_get_reader()` returns None for every subsequent client — the silent-proxy
symptom described in #2344.
Convert the except block to try/finally so cleanup always runs, regardless
of how `_process()` exits. Also:
- catch asyncio.CancelledError + generic Exception (with log.exception) so
unexpected failures don't swallow the cleanup
- reset `_current_read = None` after cancellation
- use `dict.pop(..., None)` instead of `del` to avoid KeyError races if
the broadcast loop's timeout handler already removed the entry
Triggering pattern observed in practice: a diagnostic tool opens a console,
sends a few commands, and closes abruptly (e.g. from a test harness or
orchestration script that cancels its Task). If the `_process()` task was
awaiting on one of the `network_read` / `reader_read` futures at the time
of cancellation, the CancelledError propagates up through `run()` and
bypasses the ConnectionError-only except clause. The proxy accepts future
connections (the listen socket is still alive) but never forwards any data
because `_reader_process` never got reset.
Validated against gns3/gns3-server:latest (2.2.56.1) running a 10-scenario
sequential regression batch that previously hung reliably on the 4th
sp_v1 / L3VPN scenario and now completes cleanly across all 10.
- Catch OSError alongside ConnectionError in connection processing to handle more network errors
- Move client_info retrieval inside try block to prevent AttributeError on failed connections
- Replace bare except with specific exceptions (OSError, ConnectionError, asyncio.TimeoutError)
- Improve error logging to include specific exception details and client information
- filter incoming cursor position report sequences (`ESC[<row>;<col>R`) in `AsyncioTelnetServer`
- prevent stray `;1R;80R` characters on late telnet console attach after VM boot
- keep QEMU serial transport unchanged (`-serial telnet`) for BIOS compatibility
