--bg / --pool Conflict Error Message Improved

What

The error shown when combining --bg with another backend flag now distinguishes between --pool and --cloud.

Details
  • Using --bg with --pool: "Use claude -p '<task>' --pool <pool_id> directly to start a session on the pool."
  • Using --bg with --cloud: "Use claude --cloud '<task>' directly to start a cloud session."
Evidence

Updated error message function (search for "--bg and --pool are different backends")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
