14d4bb2e2a fix(ssh): Windows hosts without Add-Type staging; runtime-store GC on Windows (#24149)
* fix(ssh): collect the pinned-Node runtime store on Windows hosts

Windows SSH hosts now run runtime-store GC instead of skipping it: one
PowerShell inventory reads .runtime-ref-node-<sha> and .runtime-node refs from
every version dir, and one Get-CimInstance Win32_Process query filtered on an
image path under runtimes\ adds process holds (never by image name; a failed
query keeps everything). Stale upload stages are swept with the same rule as
POSIX. Promotion and the post-upload hold check now take the store lock on
Windows too, and the lock's own commands run unwrapped there.

Windows relay version-dir liveness now honours .relay-pid (design D5): a live
PID answers ALIVE before any pipe is touched, a dead one (ESRCH) plus refusing
pipes is exited, anything else is unverifiable. The runtime probe adopts a
pinned node.exe an earlier vault reader left without a .verified marker after
running it.

* fix(ssh): Windows stage fencing and vault runtime go through the verified node.exe

Upload-stage file identity on Windows no longer compiles an Add-Type P/Invoke
helper when the relay runs on Orca's verified pinned node.exe: the stage
commands run a fixed fs.lstatSync(..., {bigint:true}) script through it. It
prints the legacy helper's vol:high:low lowercase hex, and identity files are
compared after normalising hex spelling, so old and new clients recover each
other's stages. Host-Node relays keep the legacy helper; the choice is
documented in windows-edr-posture.md.

The Windows OpenCode vault reader now installs the pinned runtime through
ensureRemoteOrcadNodeRuntime (official zip, host-side extraction, .verified,
store lock) instead of uploading a client-extracted node.exe, and the relay dir
gains a .runtime-ref-node-<sha> so store GC keeps the runtime the vault uses.

* test(ssh): run the Windows stage-identity and store-GC tests on the Windows lane

The legacy/node.exe identity compatibility test and the Win32_Process hold path
were gated to win32 but no CI lane ran them. Add both files to the Windows
package lane and a real running-node.exe hold test.

* test(ssh): tear down Windows-lane temp trees through removeTreeSync

* test(ssh): grant the store lock to the Windows OpenCode runtime setup test

The Windows promote now runs under runtimes/.store-lock, so the mocked host
must answer the lock's CreateNew step.
