Backlog#1845 step 7. The replication crate's hand-rolled, crate-generic Error type actually describes one thing: failures of the persisted resync/MRF state files. Rename it to ResyncStateError so the name says so, and stop collapsing io::Error into Other(String): a new Io(std::io::Error) variant keeps the kind and source chain, Display renders identically, and the ecstore boundary maps it to StorageError::Io so the kind survives into store-layer classification instead of degrading into a stringified other().
No thiserror introduced - the crate keeps its zero-internal-deps posture and hand-written impls.
Ref rustfs/backlog#1845
Preserve metadata replication operations in the durable MRF and route tagging, retention, and legal-hold updates through the existing full-object replication transport. Keep ACL propagation outside the contract because the current object model has no durable object ACL state.

fix(replication): persist original mtime in MRF entries (backlog#867)
MRF delete entries did not persist the original delete-marker mtime, so
after a restart the recovery replay path reconstructed the delete without
a source timestamp. Downstream the replica delete-marker was stamped with
the replay time (now()) instead of the source mtime, causing delete-marker
timestamp divergence across clusters.
Extend the MrfReplicateEntry disk format with an optional deleteMarkerMtime
field (persisted as Unix nanoseconds) in both duplicate struct definitions
(rustfs-replication and rustfs-filemeta). DeletedObjectReplicationInfo now
persists delete_marker_mtime, and start_mrf_processor restores it onto the
reconstructed delete so the replica keeps the source timestamp.
Backward compatibility: the new key uses skip_serializing_if + serde
default, so historical MRF files without it decode to None and replay
falls back to the current time (pre-#867 behaviour). No panic or entry
loss on old files.
Closesrustfs/backlog#867
