Zoltan Kochan d577eeaf76 fix(dlx): make failed-install cache cleanup best-effort on Windows (#12575)
* fix(dlx): make failed-install cache cleanup best-effort

On Windows, `pnpm dlx` could fail with a spurious "EBUSY: resource busy
or locked, rmdir" error. When an install into the dlx cache failed, the
catch block removed the partially-populated prepare dir with
`fs.promises.rm(cachedDir, { recursive: true, force: true })`. That call
has no retries, so it died on the same lingering Windows handle (a
just-run install script's child process, or antivirus scanning freshly
written files) and threw EBUSY — which then replaced and masked the
original install error.

Make the cleanup best-effort: swallow its failure so the original error
always surfaces, and add `maxRetries`/`retryDelay` so the removal itself
succeeds once the transient lock clears. A leftover prepare dir is
harmless — it has a unique name and findCache only trusts the `pkg`
symlink.

The pacquet port already removes the prepare dir best-effort (`let _ =
fs::remove_dir_all(...)`) and returns the original error, so the
user-visible behavior already matches; only the (non-observable) retry
is absent there.

* fix(dlx): log dlx cache cleanup failures instead of swallowing them

Catch the best-effort cache cleanup with a narrow handler that logs the
failure via logger.warn (mirroring tryRemovePkg in modules-cleaner's
prune) instead of a blanket `.catch(() => {})`. The original install
error is still the one rethrown, so cleanup failures stay visible without
ever masking the real cause.
