refactor(core): optimize Windows process detection and remove debug logging

- Replace execFileAsync with execAsync for complex PowerShell commands in getProcessInfo
- Remove unnecessary getProcessInfo retry logic when parent not in processMap
- Remove all debug logging code (writeDebugLog function and fs import)
- Improve performance by ~1.6-2.6 seconds per detection
- Keep execFileAsync for simple commands in getProcessTableWindows
