* fix(wsl): background preflight and agent detection never boot a stopped WSL distro (E9) Integration checks (git/gh/glab --version and auth status) and agent detection ran inside the focused workspace's WSL distro on every mount, poll and status-bar render, and wsl.exe starts a stopped distro. They now take a settled running read first and refuse (WSL_DISTRO_STOPPED or WSL_DISTRO_UNVERIFIABLE) when it is not running. Window focus/visibility, retry buttons, agent refresh buttons, a runtime choice in Settings and first-run onboarding pass wakeWslDistro, which runs the check as a user act on that distro only. Running distros behave exactly as before. * fix(wsl): a focus wakes only a focused WSL workspace's distro; end-to-end preflight gate test A focus with a native workspace active sends no wake. Ports the real running-list preflight case from #35395 and adds user-act scoping cases. * test(wsl): model the running gate in the preflight RPC suite and cover a stopped distro Windows CI runs the real gate, so the WSL detection case must state that the distro runs. * fix(wsl): an agent refresh click never joins a background refresh it would be refused with Store the wake flag with each in-flight refresh, as preflight.ts does, so a status-bar or Agents refresh click during a mount refresh reaches main as a user act. Note why the RPC project branch stays ungated. * fix(wsl): a refused background check waits for the distro, and an agent picker wakes it A preflight or agent detection refused for a stopped WSL distro was final: once the distro came up, nothing re-ran it, so the tab-bar + menu offered no WSL agents (real-WSL golden). Now a refusal is deferred until the distro is next confirmed running (deferUntilWslDistroRunning), and main tells renderers to re-ask. Opening an agent-launch picker (tab-bar +, composer, continuation dialog, source-control action dialog) whose list was refused retries it as a wake, never joining a background probe. * fix(wsl): an open agent picker wakes a refused list once, and never retries real failures The picker wake fired whenever the list read 'failed', so a woken probe that failed again (pending -> failed) re-fired it: an endless wsl.exe loop while the picker stayed open, and repeated probes for native failures too. It now fires at most once per open per target, and only when the last probe was an E9 refusal (distro not running/unverifiable), matched by the gate's message. * fix(wsl): forget agent-inventory refusals when the inventory or its project contexts are cleared
