fix(desktop-client): prevent duplicate window creation and serialize mode switches

- Add creation promise guards (mainWindowCreatePromise etc.) so concurrent
  ensureXxxWindow() calls share a single in-flight BrowserWindow, avoiding
  duplicate windows on rapid IPC
- Add windowModeSwitchQueue to serialize desktop:set-window-mode calls and
  the initial startup switch, preventing races when login/logout fire quickly
- Fix retireInactiveAppWindows: also retire existing login windows when
  switching to login mode, so stale login windows don't accumulate
