On Windows, `spawn()` with `detached: true` sets the
CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP flag in CreateProcess. In certain terminal
contexts — notably VSCode's integrated terminal (ConPTY), Windows
Terminal, and some MSYS2/Git Bash configurations — this flag conflicts
with the parent process group hierarchy and causes a synchronous EINVAL
from libuv, making *every* bash/async_bash/bg_shell command fail
immediately with `spawn EINVAL`.
The bg-shell extension already guards against this with
`detached: process.platform !== "win32"` (process-manager.ts:109),
but three other spawn sites were missed:
- `packages/pi-coding-agent/src/core/tools/bash.ts` (bash tool)
- `packages/pi-coding-agent/src/core/bash-executor.ts` (RPC executor)
- `src/resources/extensions/async-jobs/async-bash-tool.ts` (async_bash)
This commit aligns all spawn sites with the bg-shell pattern.
Additionally fixes two related issues:
1. `killProcessTree()` in shell.ts used `detached: true` on its own
`taskkill` spawn call — unnecessary and potentially problematic
in the same terminal contexts. Removed.
2. `killTree()` in async-bash-tool.ts used Unix-only
`process.kill(-pid)` with no Windows fallback. On Windows, negative
PIDs (process group kill) are not supported, so orphaned child
processes could survive timeout kills. Now uses `taskkill /F /T`
on Windows, matching the bg-shell and shell.ts implementations.
Includes a regression test that statically verifies no spawn site
uses unconditional `detached: true`, plus a smoke test confirming
the platform-guarded pattern works on all platforms.
Reproduction: Run GSD v2.42-v2.51 inside VSCode on Windows 11 with
Git Bash as the shell. Any bash tool call fails with `spawn EINVAL`.
The error is 100% reproducible and affects all shell operations
(bash, async_bash, bg_shell start).

LLM-generated commands with `> NUL` create undeletable files on Windows
because Git Bash treats NUL as a literal filename. Rewrite NUL redirects
to /dev/null at all three bash spawn sites.

Vendor all 4 Pi packages (tui, ai, agent-core, coding-agent) from
pi-mono v0.57.1 as @gsd/* workspace packages under packages/. This
replaces the compiled npm dependency (@mariozechner/pi-coding-agent)
and patch-package workflow, giving direct source access for
modifications.
- Copy Pi source from pi-mono v0.57.1 into packages/
- Create workspace package.json + tsconfig.json for each package
- Rename ~240 imports from @mariozechner/pi-* to @gsd/pi-*
- Apply existing patches as source edits (setModel persist, VT input)
- Remove @mariozechner/pi-coding-agent dep and patch-package
- Update build pipeline to build packages in dependency order
- Add pi-upstream git remote for future selective syncing
