Garry TanandClaude Fable 5 aa6c73821f fix(browse): honest probe budget, bounded daemon log, single refusal source, liveness + reinstall coverage
Five hardening items in the browse CLI and its tests:

- probeHealthWithBackoff's advertised ~8s budget could really run ~10s: the
  final 2s probe could start 1ms before the deadline, and every call site
  had JUST run a failed probe yet the loop re-probed immediately.
  Iterations now start with the sleep and each probe's timeout clamps to
  the remaining budget (isServerHealthy takes an injectable timeout).
- browse-daemon.log is append-mode across every respawn with no size cap,
  so a crash-respawn loop fills the disk. The path is now built in one
  place (daemonLogPath — the Unix fd path and the Windows launcher string
  had two spellings) and daemon start rotates a >10MB log to
  browse-daemon.log.1, single generation, matching the repo's 10MB
  rotation convention. Rotation is exported + injectable and behaviorally
  unit-tested.
- The two "healthy daemon already running" refusal blocks in connect had
  already drifted (one lost the tabs/cookies/logins explainer) — extracted
  refuseHeadedOverLiveDaemon as the single source.
- process-liveness: pinned the EPERM-means-alive contract (PID 1 on POSIX,
  PID 4 on Windows — signalable-or-EPERM, both alive). A probe that reads
  EPERM as dead is the false negative that leaked agents.
- runBoundedChromiumReinstall had zero coverage: now exercised end-to-end
  against a stub bunx on a prepended PATH — exit 0, install-exit-N with
  stderr tail, the detached group-kill timeout path (child of the child
  dies too), and spawn-error.
