Introduce the platform adapter layer; extract window context behind it
Phase 3 groundwork of the improvement plan (PR 7 of the sequence). The Linux
work is a platform rewrite, so this first establishes the interface boundary
and moves an OS-specific piece behind it with Windows behavior preserved — no
new process.platform branches in shared code.

- app/platform/index.js is the single factory that selects a platform
  implementation; shared code asks it for adapters and never inspects
  process.platform itself.
- app/platform/interfaces.js documents the adapter contracts
  (WindowContextProvider, ClickSource, PowerPolicy) and the explicit click-
  source vocabulary.
- Extracted the foreground-window/element detection into per-OS adapters,
  verbatim from text-intel.js:
    app/platform/windows/window-context.js  (PowerShell UIAutomation)
    app/platform/linux/window-context.js     (xprop)
    app/platform/darwin/window-context.js     (AppleScript)
  text-intel.js now delegates to the injected provider and its three
  platform-branching methods (and the now-dead child_process import) are gone.
- app/platform/linux/diagnostics.js detects session type, portal/PipeWire,
  xinput, readable input devices, and the resulting click/screen-capture
  profile, returning actionable messages for the UI. Exposed via a new
  platform:capabilities IPC + preload method.

This is behavior-preserving: the Windows/macOS/Linux window-context code is
the same, just relocated behind the factory, and the capture pipeline is
untouched.

Tests: platform selection for every OS, provider validity + null-object for
unsupported OS, the shared service delegating to an injected provider, Linux
capability detection (x11/xinput, Wayland-without-PipeWire messaging, no-click
fallback, evdev), the capability facade, and a guard that text-intel no longer
branches on process.platform. 268 unit tests pass; startup smoke passes and
the click self-test is unchanged (stream source, markers 3/3, burst 8/8).
