My office was a little chilly so I put on a jacket and zipped it up. At some point, I noticed that the zipper was undone below the main slider (it has two sliders), so I slid up the secondary slider, and then this happened.



I've tried to google for how to fix a stuck zipper, but none of the solutions seem to pertain to my situation.

What type of stitch is this? Is it generally a sign of higher quality garment construction?

You mean around the armhole? Those are slipped stitches, actually they don't have much to do with sewing per se. You will see them on more structured knit garments from time to time. Tells you that the sleeve was knit to perfectly match the armhole, but we've got machine knitting and all so I wouldn't call it a huge leap in quality.
I saw them for the first time on Banana Republic and J. Crew merino sweaters but I don't see them on the same from Uniqlo or Target so I assumed it was a sign of quality.
