/**
* Prepends a POSIX SIGHUP-ignore guard to bash commands on non-Windows platforms.
*
* PTY environments such as WSL2, Kitty, and Alacritty aggressively send SIGHUP
* to process groups that lose their controlling terminal. By prepending
* `trap '' HUP;` we apply the same mechanism as the POSIX `nohup` utility:
* SIG_IGN is inherited across exec(), so every child spawned by the command
* also ignores SIGHUP — making the guard genuinely effective even in subshells.
*
* The guard is bash-only and idempotent (won't be doubled if already present).
* It is stripped back out by stripShellWrapper() / stripHupGuard() before any
* sandbox or permission-check logic sees the command, so there is no
* privilege-escalation surface from the preamble itself.
