The "auto-detect failure messages" described in the 4th bullet at #3025 were not something I expected to see. As far as I can tell the zq-based shaper is always present in Zui's "file loader" pipeline (but this is something I'm hoping can be confirmed via review!) By default zq will always output binary ZNG in such a pipeline. Normally a load operation to the Zed lake will always happily auto-detect binary ZNG input so this has not generally been a problem. However my repro details in brimdata/super#3865 (comment) show that this mun.json test data from #3025 seems to pose a unique challenge because zq's ZNG output from reading that particular JSON happens to fail load via auto-detect.

While that Zed issue remains a mystery for the moment, it seems we can avoid it entirely and address the main #3025 symptom by explicitly specifying ZNG as the expected load format.

Here's verification of the change in this branch fixing the main #3025 symptom.
