Colby Mchenry 7cc2edadce fix(ui): the viewer server exits when the command it runs under is killed (#2119)
`codegraph ui` re-execs itself with `--liftoff-only`; the shim the user
started blocks in spawnSync and cannot forward a signal. Killing it by pid —
a process manager, an IDE task, `kill` — left the re-exec'd server serving
its port forever (found during a sweep: servers from hours earlier were still
answering on ports 4801–4808 against deleted indexes, holding their stdout
pipes so the harness that started them never exited). Ctrl+C was unaffected
(the signal reaches the whole process group).

`index`/`init` already guard this with the #277 PPID watchdog. Factor it out
of installCommandSupervision as `watchParent(onLost)` and use it in `ui` with
the same shutdown as SIGINT/SIGTERM (close the index, then the socket). The
liveness watchdog is deliberately not installed for `ui`: a long Steps
computation can legitimately hold the event loop.

Test: POSIX end-to-end through the real relaunch (CODEGRAPH_WASM_RELAUNCHED
unset, 200ms poll) — SIGKILL the shim, the port stops answering; confirmed
failing without the fix.
