Subject: [PATCH] feat: add --all flag to gateway start and restart commands
 (#10043)

- gateway start --all: kills all stale gateway processes across all
  profiles before starting the current profile's service
- gateway restart --all: stops all gateway processes across all
  profiles, then starts the current profile's service fresh
- gateway stop --all: already existed, unchanged

The --all flag was only available on 'stop' but not on 'start' or
'restart', causing 'unrecognized arguments' errors for users.
