fix: detect stale tmux sessions on startInteractive/startShell

When Claude exits inside a tmux session, tmux destroys the session
(remain-on-exit is off), but the _muxSession reference persists.
On restart, startInteractive() treats it as a "restored session" and
tries to attach to the dead tmux — causing instant exit code 1.

Now checks tmux has-session before attaching. If the session is gone,
clears the stale reference and creates a fresh tmux session.
