fix(agent): return listed drives on failure on windows (#17505)

deansheather · web-flow · commit b15d06041011 · 2025-04-23T03:31:43.000+10:00
The behavior of the partitions listing function from gopsutil is that it
will return all partitions that didn't fail to be read, but will return
something similar to a multierror.

Errors are now ignored unless there are no drives returned.
