Rob Hilgefort 65b7151dbd fix(launchd): require a supervised PID to call a reload successful
The reload retry loop treated `launchctl list <label>` exit 0 as success,
but exit 0 also covers a registered-but-not-running definition (macOS 26+
`state = not running`) — the same trap _probe_launchd_service_running
already guards against. Require a PID so success means launchd is
supervising a live process, in both the Python loop and the shell helper.

Verified against live launchd: a RunAtLoad=false job reports exit 0 with
no PID, which the old check accepted and the new one rejects.

Note this is NOT what distinguishes a draining instance — measured, the
label deregisters within ~1s of bootout while the old process drains on.
Waiting for the old PID to exit is what covers that.
