Creating a session's result branch tries git switch first and times out instead of hanging.

What
When a session creates its result branch, it now tries git switch -q -C first and falls back to checkout -B only if that fails, logging a retry line. Both attempts run under a timeout and honour cancellation, killing the git process and continuing on the current HEAD rather than hanging.
Details
- Runs with
-c alias.switch=so a user-definedswitchalias cannot take over the command. - The child process is killed with SIGKILL on timeout or abort.
Evidence
as checkout -B
