Add .quiet() method to suppress console output

[konard]

Summary

This PR implements the .quiet() method on ProcessRunner, providing functionality similar to zx's quiet() method. This allows users to suppress console output while still capturing command results programmatically.

Changes

Core Implementation

• Added .quiet() method to ProcessRunner class in src/$.mjs:4140-4144
  • Sets options.mirror = false to disable console output
  • Returns this for method chaining
  • Works seamlessly with existing await, pipe, and event patterns

Testing

• Created comprehensive test suite in tests/quiet-method.test.mjs
  • Tests output suppression for stdout and stderr
  • Verifies method chaining capabilities
  • Confirms result capture still works
  • Validates compatibility with normal (non-quiet) mode

Examples

• Added demonstration script in examples/quiet-method-demo.mjs
  • Shows usage comparison with and without .quiet()
  • Demonstrates the use case from the issue
  • Includes practical examples with JSON processing

Use Case (from Issue #136)

// Before (would fail with: .quiet is not a function)
await $`gh api gists/${gistId} --jq '{owner: .owner.login, files: .files, history: .history}'`.quiet();

// After (works perfectly!)
await $`gh api gists/${gistId} --jq '{owner: .owner.login, files: .files, history: .history}'`.quiet();

Test Results

All tests pass successfully:

• ✅ 617 passing tests
• ✅ 5 skipped tests (expected)
• ⚠️ 2 pre-existing failures (unrelated to this change)
• ✅ New .quiet() tests: 6/6 passing

Breaking Changes

None. This is a purely additive feature that doesn't modify any existing functionality.
