ipn/localapi: stop logging "broken pipe" errors (#18487)
The Tailscale CLI has some methods to watch the IPN bus for
messages, say, the current netmap (`tailscale debug netmap`).
The Tailscale daemon supports this using a streaming HTTP
response. Sometimes, the client can close its connection
abruptly -- due to an interruption, or in the case of `debug netmap`,
intentionally after consuming one message.

If the server daemon is writing a response as the client closes
its end of the socket, the daemon typically encounters a "broken pipe"
error. The "Watch IPN Bus" handler currently logs such errors after
they're propagated by a JSON encoding/writer helper.

Since the Tailscale CLI nominally closes its socket with the daemon
in this slightly ungraceful way (viz. `debug netmap`), stop logging
these broken pipe errors as far as possible. This will help avoid
confounding users when they scan backend logs.

Updates #18477
