Subject: [PATCH] fix(tui): also pass --expose-gc on the wheel-bundled launch
 path

The original PR fixed the ext_dir and built-tui paths but missed the
sibling pip-wheel path at line 1155. Without this, wheel installs would
lose --expose-gc entirely (the env-var append at the call site was
already removed). All three production node-launch sites now pass
--expose-gc via argv consistently.
