fix(webui): pass custom CLI args correctly for electron-vite 5#1408
Conversation
electron-vite 5 uses cac which strictly validates CLI options. The `--webui` / `--remote` / `--resetpass` flags are custom args for the Electron main process, not electron-vite options. Call `electron-vite dev` directly with `--` separator so cac treats them as passthrough args via `options['--']` → `ELECTRON_CLI_ARGS`. Closes #1406
