fix(infra): actively kickstart launchd on supervised gateway restart

When an agent triggers a gateway restart in supervised mode, the process
exits expecting launchd KeepAlive to respawn it. But ThrottleInterval
(default 10s, or 60s on older installs) can delay or prevent restart.

Now calls triggerOpenClawRestart() to issue an explicit launchctl
kickstart before exiting, ensuring immediate respawn. Falls back to
in-process restart if kickstart fails.
