* fix(windows): respawn a ConPTY pane that started without an input reader Bundled ConPTY occasionally starts a pane whose console host never reads its input pipe: the shell prints its banner and prompt, but every keystroke and the typed launch command are dropped. Such a pane is identifiable from its first output, because a healthy one always queries DA1 before relaying anything else. The daemon now waits for that first output, respawns once when it is missing, and replays the buffered startup output so no byte is lost. The table stress probe now waits for node-pty's own readiness rather than typed input. * fix(windows): bound the ConPTY startup check and never re-run a command - Respawn only when no command rode in the shell's argv; otherwise keep the pane and say on screen that it cannot take input. - Accept the pane unverified after 5s of silence instead of stalling the spawn. - Distrust the check after two misses with no pane ever announcing, so a changed ConPTY build cannot respawn every pane. - Kill a discarded pane through its job before closing the pseudoconsole. - Report a cancel during the wait as an attach cancel, not a spawn failure. - Assert on real Windows ConPTY that a fresh pane announces its input reader. * fix(windows): respawn only Orca's own shell argv and close an unready pane now - Treat user shell args like an argv startup command: never respawn, show the notice instead, so a command such as pwsh -Command never runs twice. - Close a discarded pane's pseudoconsole directly; node-pty defers kill() until first output, which a silent pane never produces. Kill the shell by pid when no job owns it. - Reconcile a master node-pty retired during the startup wait. - Drop the test-only respawn counter; the count rides in the daemon log. * fix(windows): tear a discarded unready pane down through node-pty's agent node-pty defers kill() until first output, so closing only the native pseudoconsole left the input pipe and output worker of a silent discarded pane alive until daemon exit. The agent's kill closes all three. * fix(windows): discard startup panes by handle only; account for the mock prelude A pid-addressed kill could hit a recycled pid when the shell exited during startup; the job and the agent's native kill both act on handles. Lifecycle assertions now expect the replayed DA1 query when the suite runs on Windows. * test(e2e): give the mocked Windows pane its ConPTY prelude
