/**
 * Decides whether a read may be skipped because its table is definitely absent.
 *
 * A fresh install genuinely does not have the plugin's tables until the upgrade
 * runs, so callers that would otherwise aggregate over them ask here first.
 * The whole point of this class is the distinction the underlying probe makes
 * and a boolean cannot: SHOW TABLES LIKE returns nothing both when the engine
 * looked and found nothing AND when the query never ran at all -- a lost
 * connection, a revoked SHOW grant, a driver that does not speak the statement.
 *
 * Only an engine that ANSWERED "no such table" earns a suppressed read. A probe
 * that could not be answered reports NOT absent, so the caller goes ahead: if
 * the table really is gone that costs one error the centralized handler already
 * knows how to log, repair and retry, which is strictly better than a confident
 * wrong answer produced by a query nobody ran and therefore nobody logged.
 *
 * Keeping that policy here rather than in each caller is what makes the wrong
 * reading unavailable: the tri-state constants stay an implementation detail,
 * and a caller can only ask the question whose answer is safe to act on.
 *
 * A table observed PRESENT is remembered for the life of this instance, keyed
 * by its fully-resolved name so a multisite blog switch cannot reuse another
 * blog's answer. Any other outcome is deliberately re-probed, so an in-request
 * repair can make later reads available without rebuilding the service graph.
 *
 * This is a schema-metadata collaborator: it issues one metadata probe and
 * holds no business or presentation logic.
