Summary
FBWebServer.startServing currently has no way to report a failure to bind the HTTP listener (e.g. every port in the configured binding range is already in use) other than calling abort(), killing the whole process with no structured error. This makes it impossible for any embedder/subclass to handle the failure gracefully (log it, retry, fail a test cleanly, etc.).
This adds an optional FBWebServerDelegate callback, webServer:didFailToStartWithError:, that is invoked with the underlying NSError when the HTTP server fails to start. If the delegate doesn't implement it, the existing abort() behavior is preserved, so this is fully backward compatible.
