hermes --tui launches the native OpenTUI engine (Bun) when
HERMES_TUI_ENGINE=opentui (env) or display.tui_engine=opentui (config);
Ink stays the default and the shipping path is untouched.
- _resolve_tui_engine() (env > config > ink); refuses opentui on
Windows/Termux (no Bun) -> falls back to ink with a notice.
- _make_opentui_argv() -> [bun, src/entry.real.tsx] (no build step).
- _bun_bin() with HERMES_BUN override.
- Branch at top of _make_tui_argv BEFORE _ensure_tui_node (Bun-only host
must not bootstrap Node).
- Gate _launch_tui NODE_OPTIONS/--max-old-space-size on engine==ink (Bun
is JSC; the V8 flag errors/ignores).
Verified end-to-end via tmux: real hermes --tui -> Bun -> OpenTUI ->
real Python gateway streamed a real reply. No-flag default still ink.
