ethernet 30da5d0a89 test: run os-specific tests on their real host, not a faked one
many tests patched sys.platform or a module's _IS_WINDOWS flag, then
ran on linux ci. the patch selects the branch under test, but the host
does not have the behavior the branch exists for. the test proves the
patch, not the platform. some gated assertions never ran on any host.

this commit adds three markers: linux_only, macos_only, windows_only.
a conftest hook skips a marked test on the other hosts, with a clear
reason. no test fakes a host now. two documented fakes remain
(android/termux, freebsd) because no ci runner exists for them.

each fake site got one of four treatments:
- gate it: the real host supplies the platform; mocks cover real
  dependencies only, never host identity
- patch the module's own probe when the subject is the probe's consumer
- assert against the real host when the fake stood in for any non-x host
- delete the patch when it set the value the host already has

bare skipif(sys.platform != ...) guards became markers too. the lane
model skips these on linux and never imports them on windows, so they
ran on no host. platform parametrize tables are now one marked test
per os.

running on real hosts found real errors: a chrome-sandbox failure in
test_gui_command that main hides, and two windows failures fixed here.
the agents.md testing section now documents the policy.

"""Tests for the stale-dashboard handling run at the end of ``hermes update``.
``hermes update`` detects ``hermes dashboard`` processes left over from the
previous version and kills them (SIGTERM + SIGKILL grace, or ``taskkill /F``
on Windows). Without this, the running backend silently serves stale Python
against a freshly-updated JS bundle, producing 401s / empty data.
History:
- #16872 introduced the warn-only helper (``_warn_stale_dashboard_processes``).
- #17049 fixed a Windows wmic UnicodeDecodeError crash on non-UTF-8 locales.
- This file now also covers the kill semantics that replaced the warning.

``sys.modules``. When that happens on the same xdist worker before we
run, our top-of-file ``from hermes_cli.main import ...`` bindings end
up pointing at the *old* module object. ``patch(\"hermes_cli.main.X\")``
then patches the *new* module, but the function we call still resolves
``_find_stale_dashboard_pids`` via its stale ``__globals__``, so every
patch becomes a no-op and the kill path silently returns early.
Refreshing the bindings (and the patch target) to the live module
object — and keeping them consistent — makes the tests immune to
ordering within the worker. The fix lives in the test module because
the two pollutants above are load-bearing for their own tests.
