Subject: [PATCH] fix: propagate cargo metada errors instead of silent
 --no-deps fallback

resolve_ws() silently retries with --no-deps when cargo metadata fails.
This hides errors and causes set-version to skip lockfile updates without any indication of failure.

Remove the or_else fallback so errors propagate to the caller.

Fixes #891
