Léo 6cda92080c fix(browser): stop treating a missing cmdline as proof the daemon exited
_terminate_owned_daemon() read /proc/<pid>/cmdline and, on FileNotFoundError,
unlinked the pid file on the stated assumption that "the daemon may have
exited". Off Linux that file is always missing, so the branch always fired:
the pid file of a live daemon was deleted and the daemon itself never killed.
_owned_daemon_exists() swallowed the same error and therefore always returned
False, which is precisely the state its own docstring warns about, since a
close against an unrecognised session can bootstrap a fresh daemon and wait on
its browser indefinitely.

Demonstrated on macOS before the change: a pid file holding a live pid is
removed by _terminate_owned_daemon() and _owned_daemon_exists() reports False.
After it, the file survives and the daemon is reported present.

_process_command_line() now returns None for "this host cannot tell" and
_process_is_alive() answers the separate question of whether the pid exists.
Without procfs we decline to kill a process we cannot confirm is ours, and we
only forget a pid file once the pid is genuinely gone. Linux behaviour is
unchanged: the command-line identity check still gates both paths.
