When Nix's SQLite narinfo cache indicates a NAR exists, but the NAR has been garbage collected from the binary cache, Nix displays error messages even though the operation succeeds via fallback. This is misleading because the cached narinfo is simply outdated. This changes SubstituteGone exceptions to produce warnings instead of errors, accurately reflecting that this is an expected cache coherency issue, not an actual failure.
