Code Review
This pull request introduces a --stop-gradle flag to the clean command, allowing users to force stop active Gradle daemons on Windows when build files are locked, and updates file deletion to be asynchronous. Feedback on these changes suggests awaiting all deleteFile calls (such as in _cleanXcode), restoring ErrorHandlingFileSystem.noExitOnFailure asynchronously to prevent regressions, adding /// documentation for the new private helper method, wrapping the Gradle stop process execution in a try-catch block to avoid masking file system exceptions, and adding a unit test for the interactive prompt behavior.
…eractive prompt test Address PR review feedback: - Add doc comment for _tryStopGradleAndRetryDelete - Catch process execution exceptions during gradlew --stop - Add unit test for interactive prompt behavior
…ExitOnFailure and restore it in clean command
