What Changed

This changes some potentially unexpected behavior. The dev runner should not restart the app if the user intentionally closes it.

Why

Restarting the app on normal exits is potentially unexpected. It also does not happen cleanly. In my work on #968, I've ran into issues where, upon restart, I would encounter two tray icons instead of one. I don't think it's an issue with my code (as I only keep reference), but it may be a macOS bug. Either way, the restarts don't seem to happen cleanly (although that might be a separate fix). Really, this is just a simple behavior change. If the current restart behavior is intended feel free to close this issue.

Note

Fix dev runner to skip restart on normal (zero-code) app exits

In dev-electron.mjs, the child process exit handler now checks the exit code and signal before scheduling a restart. A restart is only triggered when the process exits abnormally (non-zero exit code or killed by a signal), preventing unnecessary restarts on clean shutdowns during development.
