Subject: [PATCH] fix: keep unverified Instagram handles as candidates for
 collection

Instagram HEAD requests often fail (rate limiting, blocking) causing
valid handles to be dropped. Now all discovered handles are kept
(verified or not) and Apify attempts collection on all of them.
Apify's own scraper validates existence more reliably than HEAD requests.
