 * Find `command` on PATH accepting only a real executable image (`.exe`/`.com`)
 * — never a `.cmd`/`.bat`/sh shim. For consumers that need a path they can hand
 * to `CreateProcess` directly, or embed in a command line that may be parsed by
 * either `cmd.exe` or Git Bash (e.g. the generated Claude Code hook command,
 * where a `.cmd` would resolve under one shell and not the other).
 *
 * Same PATH semantics as the spawn resolution above (";" splitting, quoted
 * entries), but the candidate set is `.exe`/`.com` only — deliberately NOT a
 * filter over `findOnPath`'s result, which returns the first hit of any kind
 * and would let a `.cmd` in an early PATH dir mask a real `node.exe` in a
 * later one.
