ethernet 25d0bcd424 fix(runtime): resolve Hermes-managed Node and uv before bare PATH
Hermes installs runtimes for itself — `uv` at `$HERMES_HOME/bin/uv`, Node
at `$HERMES_HOME/node` — and neither directory is on an arbitrary
process's PATH. Every `shutil.which("node"/"npm"/"npx"/"uv")` in Hermes's
own code therefore has two failure modes: the managed runtime is invisible,
so the caller reports "not installed" or degrades to a slower tier on a
machine that has exactly what it needed; and when a system copy also
exists, the one Hermes does not own wins.

Routed the Hermes-owned call sites through managed-aware resolvers:

- `agent/lsp/install.py`, `hermes_cli/dep_ensure.py`, `hermes_cli/main.py`
  (`_make_tui_argv`), `hermes_cli/tools_config.py` (`_run_post_setup`) now
  use `find_node_executable()`.
- `hermes_cli/tools_config.py::_pip_install` and `hermes_cli/setup.py`'s
  vercel install use `ensure_uv()` (installing uv is in scope during setup,
  and the Windows installer's `uv venv` does not seed pip, so the fallback
  tier is "No module named pip"). `tools/lazy_deps.py` uses `resolve_uv()`
  — a lookup, not a bootstrap, because it runs mid-turn for an optional
  dependency and downloading a runtime as a side effect exceeds what the
  caller asked for.
- `hermes_cli/gateway.py`: extracted `_append_node_dir_for_service()`,
  shared by the systemd unit and launchd plist generators, which appends
  the managed dirs before the PATH-resolved one. A service definition is
  written once and survives reboots, so resolving a system Node that
  happens to lead the installing shell's PATH bakes the wrong interpreter
  in permanently. Managed dirs are profile-scoped, so each profile's unit
  still names its own Node; the existing symlink-parent rule (don't
  `.resolve()`) is preserved verbatim.
- `tools/environments/local.py`: the terminal tool's subshell PATH gains
  the managed dirs, appended alongside the sane entries rather than
  prepended — a tool the user deliberately put on their own PATH still
  wins, and the managed one only fills a gap. This is also what makes the
  bare `which("uv")` in `tools/env_probe.py` correct: that probe reports
  the environment the *model* sees, and the model can only run what is on
  that subshell's PATH.

`scripts/install.ps1`: the persisted User PATH update becomes
`Set-ManagedNodeFirstOnUserPath`, a move-to-front rather than an
add-if-missing. Installs made by an older install.ps1 already have the
managed dir in User PATH — at the tail, behind a system Node — and an
add-if-missing check sees it present and leaves that ordering in place
forever, so the users the bug hurt would never be repaired. Unrelated
entries keep their relative order (empty segments included; a trailing
`;` is legal and the installer's other PATH code preserves them),
duplicates collapse, and it writes only when the string actually changes.

Tests:

- `tests/test_managed_runtime_resolution.py` — AST guard that fails any
  new bare `which()` for a managed runtime, with a short justified
  allow-list and a companion test that fails when an allow-list entry goes
  stale. Reading source is banned by AGENTS.md and this is the documented
  exception: the property is "no call site anywhere spells it this way",
  which no runtime seam can observe.
- `scripts/ci/test_install_ps1_path_migration.ps1` — behavioral, not a
  source regex: it lifts the real `Set-ManagedNodeFirstOnUserPath` out of
  install.ps1's AST and rewrites only the two registry calls into an
  in-memory store, so the shipped split/dedupe/prepend/change-detection
  logic executes for real. Not in the default lane (Linux runners have no
  PowerShell host); runs under `pwsh`. 13/13 assertions pass.

"""Auto-installation of LSP server binaries.
Tries to install missing servers using whatever package manager is
appropriate. All installs go to a Hermes-owned bin staging dir,
``<HERMES_HOME>/lsp/bin/``, so we don't pollute the user's global
toolchain.
Strategies:
- ``auto`` — attempt to install with the best available package
manager. This is the default.
- ``manual`` — never install; if a binary is missing, the server is
silently skipped and the user is told about it via ``hermes lsp
status``.
- ``off`` — same as ``manual`` for now (kept distinct so we can
evolve behavior later, e.g. logging differently).
The actual installs happen synchronously the first time a server is
needed and concurrent calls to :func:`try_install` for the same
package are deduplicated via a per-package lock.
Failure modes are non-fatal: every install path is wrapped in
try/except and returns ``None`` on failure. The tool layer then
falls back to its in-process syntax checker, exactly as if the user
hadn't enabled LSP at all.
