Description of Change

Addresses intermittent Windows timeouts in the custom-protocol extension spec that remained after isolating fixture profiles.

loadExtension() can resolve before the MV3 background worker has registered its message listener. The fixture now waits for an explicit readiness announcement from the worker before navigating to the custom-protocol page. The readiness listener is attached before loading the extension so an early announcement cannot be missed.

The fixture runner also waits for process closure, checks exit status, and includes captured stdout/stderr in failure diagnostics.
