Auto-start both processes at logon and self-update from master

Instances were started by hand and updated by hand, so they drifted behind
master silently. Now: PM2 supervises the dashboard and the clicker, a logon
task brings them up, and a 5-minute task pulls, rebuilds and restarts when
master moves.

Restarting on every push is only safe because the scheduler now survives it.
It was pure in-memory state (_global.__autoTrader), so any restart silently
stopped automated trading with the dashboard simply showing it as off. It now
mirrors running/action/symbol/stopAfterAll to the settings table, and
resumeSchedulerIfPersisted() picks it back up from the getClients() bootstrap.
No sync-wait was needed there: tick() already skips while a client reports
!syncComplete and while any account holds a position.

A failed build is never deployed — the build runs before anything restarts, so
a broken push leaves the previous build serving.

start-all and update-check both warm the app with a request afterwards. That is
load-bearing: getClients() is lazily bootstrapped, so until something makes an
HTTP request the Tradovate clients, the reporter and the resumed schedule never
start. That was already true of manual restarts.

Logic lives in Node so a macOS or Linux port only needs an equivalent of
install-autostart.ps1. Python deps are hash-guarded, so the common path is one
hash and one import with no network, and failure is non-fatal since only the
clicker needs them.
