teknium1 4766b3cdb9 fix: fall back to ZIP download when git clone fails on Windows ...

Git for Windows can completely fail to write files during clone due to
antivirus software, Windows Defender Controlled Folder Access, or NTFS
filter drivers. Even with windows.appendAtomically=false, the checkout
phase fails with 'unable to create file: Invalid argument'.

New install strategy (3 attempts):
1. git clone with -c windows.appendAtomically=false (SSH then HTTPS)
2. If clone fails: download GitHub ZIP archive, extract with
   Expand-Archive (Windows native, no git file I/O), then git init
   the result for future updates
3. All git commands now use -c flag to inject the atomic write fix

Also passes -c flag on update path (fetch/checkout/pull) and makes
submodule init failure non-fatal with a warning.
