fix: resolve ConfigCache.has() stat inflation and hook system errors (#582)

* fix: resolve ConfigCache.has() stat inflation and hook system errors (#497, #528)

Reimplemented has() to check Map directly without touching metrics.
Applied to both core/config/ and infrastructure/scripts/ copies.

runner path didn't account for node_modules layout. Added path resolution
with fallback candidates. Also fixed:
- synapse-engine.cjs: replaced process.exit() with process.exitCode for
  clean stdout flush
- hook-runtime.js: create session file on first prompt when loadSession
  returns null (prevents silent updateSession failures)

Updated tests to match new behavior (process.exitCode, createSession export).

* fix: address CodeRabbit review issues for PR #582

- precompact-session-digest.cjs: spawn detached child process instead of
  require()-ing runner in-process. The runner uses setImmediate internally
  which kept the event loop alive and caused the hook to block (wait for
  the 9 s safety timeout) instead of being fire-and-forget. Context is
  forwarded via AIOX_HOOK_CONTEXT env var to the inline Node script.

- synapse-engine.cjs: replace process.exitCode = 0 with process.exit(0)
  in the timeout callback. process.exitCode alone does not terminate the
  process when active handles remain (e.g. stdout backpressure), defeating
  the 5 s hard limit that protects Claude Code from a blocking hook.

* fix: add error handling for spawn and JSON serialization in precompact hook

Addresses CodeRabbit review: handle spawn 'error' event and
JSON.stringify failures to prevent unhandled exceptions.
