root 349711bcf0 Add 'drover gui' subcommand: native Win32 MessageBox smoke test
Build / test (push) Successful in 20s
Build / build-windows (push) Successful in 6s
Release / release (push) Successful in 1m45s
Shows a small message box with version metadata + build info. Used as
a fastest possible end-user smoke check after install: double-click
drover.exe in a portable bundle (or run 'drover gui' from cmd) and
see "OK — the binary launched and the Windows API is reachable" with
the right version on screen. No network calls, no admin needed.

Implementation: cgo-free, uses only golang.org/x/sys/windows (already
pulled in by the updater package). gui_other.go is a stub so the
package still compiles on Linux for the CI smoke build.

Locally verified: built with -X main.Version=test-local, ran
'drover.exe gui' on Windows 11, message box appeared with correct
version/commit/Go runtime info.

// showTestWindow displays a native Win32 MessageBox with build info.
// The intent is to give end-users a visual smoke-test on first run:
// double-click drover.exe (or run `drover gui`) and see that:
// 1. the binary actually launches on Windows,
// 2. the embedded version metadata is correct,
// 3. the process can talk to user32.dll (i.e. the runtime is healthy).
//
// This is *not* the production GUI — that comes later via Wails. Here we
// purposely use only stdlib + golang.org/x/sys/windows so this works
// before any Wails/CGO machinery is wired up.
