Two fixes after live setup on home-windows-1: register from $RunnerHome (act_runner writes
.runner relative to CWD, so it must run there — it had landed in the SSH home and the daemon
couldn't find it), and run the daemon under cmd-level redirect (>> runner.log 2>&1) so its native
stderr stays out of PowerShell's error stream. Runner is live: windows-amd64:host, SYSTEM
scheduled task, "declare successfully" against git.unom.io.

PowerShell 5.1 reads .ps1 in the system code page; an em-dash inside a string literal misparsed
(its bytes look like a quote) and the non-ASCII username in the daemon wrapper would have been
mangled. Drop the em-dash and copy rustup toolchains to C:\Users\Public\.rustup so the wrapper
carries no non-ASCII path. Prep validated: act_runner 1.0.8 + Node 20 + config generated.

The Windows analogue of scripts/ci/setup-macos-runner.sh: downloads act_runner (gitea-runner)
in host mode, bumps Node 20 via nvm4w (actions/checkout@v4), registers against git.unom.io with
labels windows-amd64:host, and installs a SYSTEM scheduled task that keeps the daemon alive
across reboots. The daemon's env wrapper hard-codes this box's MSVC/WinUI toolchain (cargo/rustup,
NASM, CMake, LLVM, FFmpeg, the ASCII CARGO_HOME SDL3's PCH needs) so the Windows workflow inherits
a working toolchain. Idempotent; token (from org unom -> Settings -> Actions -> Runners) not
persisted.
