flate: keep the reader failed after WriteTo short write - #1304
(1) 114fe88 — flate.Reader.WriteTo returned io.ErrShortWrite when the destination writer accepted fewer bytes than offered, but left f.err unset and kept the buffered output. The same replay happened when w.Write returned (n > 0, err). A writer returning io.EOF was worse: f.err doubles as the end-of-stream marker, so a later io.ReadAll reported success on truncated output. Unlike the w.Write error path just above it, a later Read on the same reader continued from the unconsumed f.toRead and replayed bytes already handed to the writer, silently duplicating output. Make the failure sticky, discard the buffer on both destination failure paths, and store io.ErrUnexpectedEOF when the writer reports EOF while WriteTo still returns the original error.
Tests in flate/inflate_test.go, table-driven TestWriteToShortWriteDoesNotReplayData with a partialWriter that accepts n bytes and optionally returns an error:
one byte, no error — WriteTo must return 1 and io.ErrShortWrite; a later Read must return zero bytes and the same error.
zero bytes, no error — WriteTo must return 0 and io.ErrShortWrite; a later Read must return zero bytes.
one byte with error — WriteTo must return 1 and the writer's error; a later Read must return zero bytes and that error.
zero bytes with error — WriteTo must return 0 and the writer's error; a later Read must return zero bytes and that error.
writer returns EOF — WriteTo must return io.EOF; a later Read must return io.ErrUnexpectedEOF, and io.ReadAll on a fresh reader must not report success.
Before the fix, the short-write cases handed the full payload back on a later Read, and the EOF case let io.ReadAll succeed with truncated output. The first version of this change only covered the short-write branch; a red-team check and a CodeRabbit review both caught the error branch, which is now covered too. Both destination failure modes clear the buffer.
Verified: go test ./..., go test -tags=noasm ./flate, go test -tags=nounsafe ./flate, go vet, go fix -diff, FuzzEncoding 90s, FuzzInflateBufio 60s, and FuzzEncoding 60s with -tags=noasm all pass.
Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Decompression now reports a short-write error when a destination accepts fewer bytes than provided. Subsequent reads return an error instead of replaying output.
When a destination writer returns an error, subsequent reads no longer replay output already offered to the writer, while the accepted byte count is preserved.
A writer’s io.EOF is recorded as an unexpected end of input, while WriteTo returns the writer’s original error. Short writes return io.ErrShortWrite.
WriteTo now normalizes writer errors in its stored error state and clears pending output after a writer error or short write. Tests cover partial and zero-byte writes, including io.EOF, and check subsequent read behavior.
Changes: Short-write error handling

Summary
Record and verify write errors flate/inflate.go, flate/inflate_test.go
WriteTo stores io.ErrUnexpectedEOF when the writer returns io.EOF, stores other writer errors unchanged, and clears pending output after a writer error or short write. Short writes store and return io.ErrShortWrite. Tests check returned errors and verify that later reads do not replay output.
The change prevents output replay and preserves failures after unsuccessful writes. No merge-blocking regression remains identified; the existing gzip EOF-handling limitation is unchanged.

Explanation
The title "flate: keep the reader failed after WriteTo short write" matches the main change. The PR makes WriteTo failures sticky after short writes and writer errors, clears pending output so a later Read does not replay bytes, and stores io.ErrUnexpectedEOF when the writer returns io.EOF. The title names the package, the sticky failed state, and the short-write trigger. It omits the EOF mapping and the output-clearing behavior, which is acceptable because the title need not cover every detail.

Cover zero-byte short writes.
Both short-write tests use a writer that accepts one byte. Add a case that returns (0, nil) for a nonempty buffer and checks that a subsequent Read returns io.ErrShortWrite. This would detect a regression that makes only positive-length short writes sticky.

Keep destination EOF distinct from gzip end-of-stream.
If the destination returns io.EOF before accepting all output, a later gzip.Reader.WriteTo returns nil without checking the trailer. Ensure the gzip reader records a non-EOF failure for this case.
