feat: auto-download prebuilt node-pty binaries for Windows

Eliminates the need for Visual Studio Build Tools on Windows by: 1. GitHub Actions workflow (.github/workflows/build-prebuilds.yml) - Builds node-pty for Windows x64 with correct Electron ABI - Uploads prebuilt binaries as release assets - Triggered on releases and manual dispatch 2. Smart postinstall script (auto-claude-ui/scripts/postinstall.js) - On Windows: tries to download prebuilts first - Falls back to electron-rebuild if prebuilts unavailable - Shows clear instructions if compilation fails 3. Download helper (auto-claude-ui/scripts/download-prebuilds.js) - Fetches prebuilt binaries from GitHub releases - Extracts and installs to node_modules/node-pty Windows users can now run `npm install` without installing Visual Studio Build Tools, as long as prebuilt binaries exist for their Electron version.
