Root cause fix: runner.go passed config as unevaluated PS expression
via -File mode - scripts received a literal string instead of parsed
object. Changed to -ConfigPath; scripts load JSON themselves via
shared common.ps1 (Write-Log, Get-Feature, Load-Config).
GUI now regenerates runtime config before run so user selections
actually reach the scripts.
Merged 04-default-profile + 05-personalization into single script
(one hive load/unload, no Explorer restart, no hive contention).
Deleted Deploy-Windows.ps1 (xetup.exe is sole entry point),
06-scheduled-tasks.ps1 (tasks caused more harm than good),
07-desktop-info.ps1 (replaced by BackInfo long ago).
Step ordering: activation moved early, pcIdentity before WU
(exit 9 on rename only when rename actually happened).
Edge policies split into mandatory (telemetry, first-run) vs
recommended (UI preferences user can override).
Atera install uses Start-Process -Wait instead of fragile sleep.
Updated config.json, tests, DefaultConfig to match current state.

HKCR: is not available by default in PS sessions - must be explicitly
mounted via New-PSDrive before any registry operations on it.
