Adds Program.RunWithResult, which runs the driver without inheriting
the calling process's stdio and returns a RunResult { ExitCode,
StandardOutput, StandardError }. Useful under test frameworks (e.g.
xUnit) that don't surface inherited console output, where a non-zero
Run() exit code is otherwise undiagnosable. Run() is unchanged.

Summary
Microsoft.Playwright.Program.RunWithResult(string[] args)which runs the Playwright driver with stdout/stderr redirected (instead of inherited) and returns aProgram.RunResult { ExitCode, StandardOutput, StandardError }.Runonly returns an exit code and the diagnostic message is lost.RunandMainare unchanged; the shared driver-process construction (path lookup, arg quoting, env vars) is extracted into a private helper.Fixes #3139
