fix(windows): improve install.ps1 errors for missing VC++ runtime (#1962)

## Summary

On clean Windows machines without the MSVC runtime, `vp.exe` fails to
start during `irm https://vite.plus/ps1 | iex` with exit code
`0xC0000135` (STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND). The installer previously reported a
generic "Failed to install dependencies" with an empty `install.log`,
and `exit 1` closed the entire PowerShell window when run via `iex`.

This PR:
- Detects `0xC0000135` after `vp.exe install` fails and prints VC++
2015–2022 Redistributable install guidance (x64/arm64)
- Replaces bare `exit 1` with a non-CI halt path so interactive `irm |
iex` installs keep the shell open without duplicating the error message

All `Write-Error-Exit` paths now keep the interactive shell open when
not running under `CI=true`.

## Context

Similar report elsewhere: kirodotdev/Kiro#9752

## Test plan

- [x] Clean Windows without VC++: single clear error, shell stays open
(no duplicate message, no window close)
- [ ] Windows with VC++ installed: install completes normally
- [ ] CI path (`CI=true`): still exits with non-zero code
