Teknium ac2e4207c1 fix(desktop): confirm detached updater spawn before quitting for hand-off (#66753) ...

The update hand-off spawned the detached updater, called unref(), and
quit unconditionally after the 2.5s dwell. Node reports exec failures
(ENOENT/EACCES) asynchronously via the child 'error' event, and a
short-lived updater can die inside that window — in both cases the app
vanished with no updater, no relaunch, and no evidence (the reported
macOS incident, and the posix.sh early-death reports on the same
thread).

Add observeUpdaterHandoff(): watch the just-spawned child for 'error'
and early 'exit' during the existing dwell (no added latency — the
dwell doubles as the settle window). Clean exit 0 inside the window
stays a success (the Windows `cmd start` wrapper exits immediately by
design); a spawn error, non-zero exit, or signal death is a failed
hand-off. On failure:

- applyUpdates (Windows hand-off): don't quit — restart the backend and
  surface a structured error to the UI.
- applyUpdatesPosixHandoff (mac/linux): don't quit — surface the error.
- handOffWindowsBootstrapRecovery: return false so the caller falls
  through to its next recovery path instead of quitting into nothing.

The pre-written update marker names the dead child pid, so
readLiveUpdateMarker self-heals it; no marker cleanup needed. Children
without an event interface settle ok after the window, keeping the
observation a best-effort hardening rather than a new way to wedge an
update.

Covered by 7 new unit tests (spawn-error, non-zero exit, signal death,
clean exit 0 wrapper, survival, double-settle, event-less child).

Closes #66753
