Improve pack generator robustness and error handling

Based on code review feedback, this commit addresses several critical issues:

1. **Better Bundler context detection**: Now checks ENV['BUNDLE_GEMFILE']
   for more robust detection of meaningful Bundler contexts

2. **Enhanced Rails availability checking**: Safely verifies Rails.application
   can actually load tasks, with proper error handling

3. **Consistent error handling**: Errors are always written to stderr,
   even in silent mode. Backtrace included when DEBUG env var is set

4. **Reduced code complexity**: Refactored run_rake_task_directly into
   smaller, focused methods (load_rake_tasks, prepare_rake_task,
   capture_output, handle_rake_error) to satisfy RuboCop complexity checks

5. **Maintained test compatibility**: Tests continue to pass because the
   code properly falls back to bundle exec in test environment where
   BUNDLE_GEMFILE is not set

These changes ensure:
- Tests work correctly (they mock system calls which are used in test env)
- Production bin/dev usage is optimized (direct Rake execution when safe)
- Error messages are never silently swallowed
- More robust detection of execution context
