[azure-eventhub] Update input v1 status on start, failure, and stop (#…

…41469) (#41546)

Update the Elastic Agent status by calling `inputContext.UpdateStatus(status.Failed, err.Error())` during the main input lifecycle phases (set up and run). If any setup, startup, and run steps fail, the input reports the fatal issue before shutting down.

Without reporting the fatal error, the input logs the error and stops, but users continue to see it as "healthy" in Fleet, causing confusion and making troubleshooting much harder.

(cherry picked from commit 882c854)
