Garry TanandClaude Fable 5 4047e52bc6 fix(gbrain): quote cmd.exe arguments at a single gbrain invocation seam
Fixes #2471. With shell:true on Windows, node/bun join argv into one cmd.exe
string without quoting, so a repo path with a space — the default
C:\Users\First Last\ layout — split into two arguments and every gbrain call
carrying a path silently targeted the wrong location (worst: `sources add
--path`). All gbrain CLI invocations now build their (cmd, argv, shell)
triple through gbrainInvocation(), which quotes risky arguments for cmd.exe's
re-parse (embedded quotes doubled). The four direct spawn sites in
lib/gbrain-sources.ts route through the seam; the #1731 static invariant is
upgraded for seamed files (any direct "gbrain" opener is the violation) and
kept as-is for lib/gbrain-local-status.ts. POSIX behavior unchanged
(shell:false, passthrough argv).
