enricobuehler 0ce2e37faf refactor(host/windows): clean up DDA path + add a proper Windows service
Final cleanup after the DDA-parity work, plus an end-user service to replace the
PsExec/VBS/scheduled-task launch chain.

Cleanup (behavior-preserving):
- sudovda.rs: drop the dead legacy GDI isolate_displays/restore_displays (CCD is
  the sole isolation path), the always-empty Monitor.isolated field, and the
  vestigial reassert_isolation + PUNKTFUNK_ISOLATE_DISPLAYS knob; fix stale comments.
- dxgi.rs: downgrade leftover debug warns/infos (DuplicateOutput1 retry, FALLBACKS,
  hook-hits, AcquireNextFrame idle timeout) to debug!; remove the PUNKTFUNK_NO_CURSOR
  per-frame test knob.

Windows service (src/service.rs, `punktfunk-host service`):
- SCM supervisor (windows-service crate) that duplicates its LocalSystem token,
  retargets it to the active console session, and CreateProcessAsUserW's the host
  there (Sunshine/Apollo model) — relaunching on exit and console session switch,
  inside a kill-on-close job object so a service crash never orphans the host.
- install/uninstall/start/stop/status subcommands: one elevated `service install`
  registers an auto-start LocalSystem service + firewall rules + a default host.env.
- Config moves to %ProgramData%\punktfunk\host.env; config_dir() now resolves to
  %ProgramData%\punktfunk on Windows (replacing the APPDATA=C:\Users\Public hack),
  with a PUNKTFUNK_CONFIG_DIR override. Logs land in %ProgramData%\punktfunk\logs\.
- merged_env_block (shared with the WGC helper) now also carries RUST_LOG.
- docs/windows-service.md + scripts/windows/host.env.example; windows-host.md updated.

//! Host-side WGC helper relay (Windows two-process secure-desktop design,
//! docs/windows-secure-desktop.md — step 4).
//!
//! WGC won't activate under the SYSTEM account, so the SYSTEM host can't capture the normal desktop
//! itself. Instead it spawns `m3-host wgc-helper` in the **interactive user session** (so WGC works)
//! via `CreateProcessAsUserW`, with the helper's **stdout** redirected to an anonymous pipe the host
//! reads. The helper ships framed Annex-B access units; this module parses them back into AUs the
//! host relays onto the live QUIC session (same `EncodedFrame` flow, just sourced over a pipe instead
//! of a local encoder). A second pipe carries a tiny **control** channel to the helper (stdin: force
//! keyframe), and the helper's **stderr** is forwarded line-by-line into host tracing so its logs are
//! visible from the SYSTEM host's console.
//!
//! Wire framing (must match `wgc_helper::write_au`): per AU
//! `[u32 magic "PFAU" LE][u32 len LE][u64 pts_ns LE][u8 keyframe][len bytes data]`.
