Teknium 0ad4f55aa8 feat(dashboard): add --stop and --status flags (#17840)
`hermes dashboard` is a long-lived foreground server that users often
start and forget about, sometimes in a shell they've since closed.  We
didn't have a way to stop it — users had to find the PID manually.

Adds two lifecycle flags that reuse the same detection + termination
path the post-`hermes update` cleanup (PR #17832) uses:

  hermes dashboard --status
    List running hermes dashboard processes with PID + cmdline.
    Exit 0, informational.

  hermes dashboard --stop
    Terminate all running dashboards (3s grace then force-kill survivors).
    Exit 0 if none remain, 1 if any couldn't be stopped.
    Windows uses `taskkill /F` as before.

Both flags short-circuit before any fastapi/uvicorn import so they work
even on installations where the dashboard extras aren't installed —
useful when you're cleaning up after uninstalling.

The kill helper gained an optional `reason=...` param so the output
reads "(requested via --stop)" instead of the post-update-specific
"running backend no longer matches the updated frontend" wording.

E2E: `hermes dashboard --status` with nothing running prints the
empty message; with a fake `hermes dashboard ...` cmdline spawned via
`exec -a`, `--status` lists it, `--stop` terminates it (exit -15),
and a follow-up `--status` returns empty.

"""Tests for the stale-dashboard handling run at the end of ``hermes update``.
``hermes update`` detects ``hermes dashboard`` processes left over from the
previous version and kills them (SIGTERM + SIGKILL grace, or ``taskkill /F``
on Windows). Without this, the running backend silently serves stale Python
against a freshly-updated JS bundle, producing 401s / empty data.
History:
- #16872 introduced the warn-only helper (``_warn_stale_dashboard_processes``).
- #17049 fixed a Windows wmic UnicodeDecodeError crash on non-UTF-8 locales.
- This file now also covers the kill semantics that replaced the warning.
