Restore auto-building when smart import fails - #4256

SmartImportJob turns auto-building off for the duration of the import and turns it back on as the last statement of its try block. A configurator that throws, or a cancellation, skips that statement, so the workspace is left with auto-building permanently disabled until the user notices and toggles it manually. Restore the previous setting in a finally block instead. Also null check the optional import listener when closing projects after the import.

The smart import job disables workspace auto-building while it runs and re-enables it as the last statement of its try block. If a project configurator throws or the import is cancelled, that statement is skipped and the workspace is left with auto-building permanently off, which is confusing because nothing points back at the failed import.
Restoring the setting in a finally block fixes this, and the optional import listener is now null checked when projects are closed after the import. The new test asserts both that the failing import reports an error status and that auto-building survives it.
