jif 51d4562070 Support close-on-exec attachments without changing PTY semantics (#47797 )

## Why

Passing extra descriptors to a PTY previously selected behavior intended for inherited escalation sockets: no EOF on stdin close, different signal exit statuses, and no default `SHELL`. Launch attachments need ordinary PTY behavior and must survive execution even when marked `FD_CLOEXEC`.

## What changed

- Add `ChildFds::Attached` alongside `ChildFds::Inherited` to distinguish launch attachments from legacy inherited descriptors.
- Preserve ordinary EOF, default `SHELL`, and signal exit status behavior for PTY attachments.
- Allow explicitly supplied close-on-exec descriptors through pipe and PTY launches without changing the parent's descriptor flags, using child-side flag updates and macOS spawn inheritance actions.
- Update existing callers to use `ChildFds::Inherited`.

## Testing

Add Unix coverage for attachment accessibility, unchanged parent descriptor flags, default `SHELL`, and signal exit statuses. Extend the PTY stdin-draining test to cover attachments and EOF delivery.

codex-utils-pty

Lightweight helpers for spawning interactive processes either under a PTY (pseudo terminal) or regular pipes. The public API is minimal and mirrors both backends so callers can switch based on their needs (e.g., enabling or disabling TTY).

API surface

spawn_pty_process(program, args, cwd, env, arg0, size) → SpawnedProcess
spawn_pipe_process(program, args, cwd, env, arg0) → SpawnedProcess
spawn_pipe_process_no_stdin(program, args, cwd, env, arg0) → SpawnedProcess
combine_output_receivers(stdout_rx, stderr_rx) → broadcast::Receiver<Vec<u8>>
conpty_supported() → bool (Windows only; always true elsewhere)
TerminalSize { rows, cols } selects PTY dimensions in character cells.
ProcessHandle exposes:
- writer_sender() → mpsc::Sender<Vec<u8>> (stdin)
- resize(TerminalSize)
- close_stdin()
- has_exited(), exit_code(), terminate()
SpawnedProcess bundles session, stdout_rx, stderr_rx, and exit_rx (oneshot exit code).

Usage examples

use std::collections::HashMap;
use std::path::Path;
use codex_utils_pty::combine_output_receivers;
use codex_utils_pty::spawn_pty_process;
use codex_utils_pty::TerminalSize;

# tokio_test::block_on(async {
let env_map: HashMap<String, String> = std::env::vars().collect();
let spawned = spawn_pty_process(
    "bash",
    &["-lc".into(), "echo hello".into()],
    Path::new("."),
    &env_map,
    &None,
    TerminalSize::default(),
).await?;

let writer = spawned.session.writer_sender();
writer.send(b"exit\n".to_vec()).await?;

// Collect output until the process exits.
let mut output_rx = combine_output_receivers(spawned.stdout_rx, spawned.stderr_rx);
let mut collected = Vec::new();
while let Ok(chunk) = output_rx.try_recv() {
    collected.extend_from_slice(&chunk);
}
let exit_code = spawned.exit_rx.await.unwrap_or(-1);
# let _ = (collected, exit_code);
# anyhow::Ok(())
# });

Swap in spawn_pipe_process for a non-TTY subprocess; the rest of the API stays the same. Use spawn_pipe_process_no_stdin to force stdin closed (commands that read stdin will see EOF immediately).

Tests

Unit tests live in src/lib.rs and cover both backends (PTY Python REPL and pipe-based stdin roundtrip). Run with:

just test -p codex-utils-pty --no-capture
