The Windows /restart watcher's outer Popen spawns the watcher with
windows_detach_popen_kwargs() (which carries CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB),
but a restrictive parent job object can reject that bit with OSError and
the current call has no retry. Preserve the current watcher
implementation and add a focused breakaway-denied fallback.
Preserved from current main: watcher_python / pythonw.exe selection, the
str(restart_after_s) deadline, the scrubbed watcher_env, the intentional
no-breakaway inline respawn, and the entire POSIX setsid/bash path.
- primary keeps **windows_detach_popen_kwargs()
- on OSError, retry the same argv/env with
creationflags=windows_detach_flags_without_breakaway()
- on dual failure, log a definitive, path-safe warning (interpreter
basename + numeric winerror/errno only) and return without crashing
Replace the superseded breakaway-first inline design and its AST tests
with focused behavioral coverage that drives the real coroutine with a
mocked subprocess.Popen (retry, argv/env/DEVNULL preservation, POSIX
single-session kwarg, no-breakaway inline respawn, secret-safe logging).
