drover.exe is now a GUI subsystem binary:
- Double-click no longer flashes a console window — a clean
smoke-test message box opens immediately.
- When run from cmd / PowerShell, AttachConsole reattaches stdout
and stderr to the parent terminal so '--version', 'check', etc.
still print as expected.
- MB_TOPMOST flag added to MessageBox so the window can't be
obscured by other windows on launch (this was the actual cause
of "I clicked but nothing happened" reports).
Verified locally: built with GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 -H=windowsgui;
running drover-gui.exe --version prints to PowerShell, drover-gui.exe
gui shows the message box on top of the active window.
