fix(python-checks): don't fail private-index probe on expected 404 at bare /simple/ root

Gitea's PyPI registry only resolves /simple/<package>/, not the bare
/simple/ index root, so the v1.11.2 probe added to give visible
diagnostics for the private-index setup step was always 404ing even
when the index and credentials were correct. This broke installs of
private Python packages during builds. The probe now only fails hard
on 401/403 (auth rejected) or an unreachable host; a plain 404 is
logged and left to pip's own resolution to confirm.
