* Fix #4791: Use idiomatic for-range pattern for error channel

Replace the for-select-nil-check pattern with the idiomatic for-range
pattern when consuming from the error channel. The for-range pattern:
- Automatically exits when the channel is closed
- Doesn't require manual nil checks
- Is more maintainable and less error-prone
- Follows Go best practices for channel consumption

This eliminates the potential for goroutine leaks if the nil check
were accidentally removed or modified in future maintenance.

// While this pattern technically works when the channel is closed (returns nil, then returns from goroutine),

// 3. It's harder to understand and maintain
