Commit Message

tests: surface qtile's logs on stderr when it fails to start

When a test's qtile process fails to come up, the harness previously
raised a bare "Error launching qtile" (plus a traceback if the child
sent one), but qtile's own log output -- which is written to a pipe and
only read on demand via get_log_buffer() -- was silently dropped. That
made startup failures in CI very hard to diagnose.

Add _drain_logs()/_dump_logs() to read whatever qtile buffered in the
log pipe (non-blocking) and print it to stderr, which pytest captures
and shows on failure. This is wired into both the start() failure paths
and terminate() when qtile exits with a non-zero exit code.

Also move the log pipe handler setup ahead of backend.create() in the
child so that the most common startup failure -- not being able to
connect to the display -- actually gets logged to the pipe and can be
surfaced.
