chore(dev): keep the detached dev-server start script

Running "npm run dev" as a tracked agent task gets the process killed
when the runtime cap is reached, which leaves the machine with no dev
server on port 6001. This script starts it with Start-Process so it
survives session churn, and it refuses to start a second server when
the port is already taken.

The older .run-dev.ps1 in the same folder is broken and is replaced by
this one: it invokes the Next binary without its extension, which
PowerShell cannot execute, so node.exe is called explicitly instead.

# Start the Workflow dev server fully detached from the agent session.
#
# WHY THIS FILE EXISTS
# Running "npm run dev" as a tracked background task gets the process
# killed when the runtime 3600000ms cap is reached (about 1 hour).
# Start-Process detaches it, so it survives session churn.
#
# NOTE: the older .run-dev.ps1 in this folder is broken. It calls
# & '.\node_modules\next\dist\bin\next'
# but that path has no extension, so PowerShell cannot execute it.
# node.exe must be invoked explicitly, which is what this script does.
#
# Usage: powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .start-dev-detached.ps1
