fix(worktrees): stop surfacing prunable git worktrees as live workspaces (#8409)
* fix(worktrees): stop surfacing prunable git worktrees as live workspaces

A worktree still registered in git but whose directory was deleted
(git's `prunable` state) was enumerated as a normal workspace,
producing repeated pty:spawn DaemonProtocolError / fs:readDir ENOENT
loops and a blank pane.

- Parse the `prunable` porcelain field (Git >= 2.36) in both the main
  and relay worktree-list parsers.
- For Git < 2.36 (no `prunable` field), probe each linked worktree
  path for existence on the fallback line-block path, skipping locked
  registrations to mirror git's own prunable rules.
- Omit prunable worktrees from the detected-workspace enumeration only;
  removal/cleanup flows keep seeing them.
- Extend the real-binary compatibility contract with the 2.36
  `prunable` boundary.

Fixes #8389

* fix(worktrees): pin the prunable/locked porcelain annotations to their real Git 2.31 boundary

The prunable and locked annotations landed in Git 2.31, five releases
before `worktree list -z` (2.36); only -z defines the capability
fallback boundary. Correct the compatibility contract so a future
matrix entry in the 2.31-2.35 range passes, and reword the fallback
comments: on 2.31-2.35 the annotations still parse and the existence
probe is a backstop; only Git <2.31 relies on it outright.

* fix(worktrees): omit prunable registrations from the Space scan

A prunable registration has no directory to size or reclaim, so Space
rendered it as a dead "Missing" row whose checkbox stayed disabled with
no prune/remove affordance (reported on macOS after a reboot cleared
/private/tmp under 16 registrations). Skip prunable entries in the scan,
matching the workspace enumeration; removal flows list worktrees
separately and still see them.
