[IMP] odoo/tests: reporting & handling of chrome start issues

Core18.0odoo/tests

This update improves how Odoo reports and cleans up failures when automated browser-based tests cannot start Chrome. It makes test infrastructure issues more visible to maintainers and helps avoid leftover browser processes or temporary files on test machines.

Original PR description

If we can't find the devtools port file after 10 seconds we skip the test, however

- this is an invisible error because the runbot does not surface skipped tests, so this specific variant should also have a warning (also the skip from not finding a chrome executable)
- if chrome started but got stuck before it managed to create the port file we don't `stop` the chromebrowser as it never finished starting, however this means we leave a chrome running in the void a `user_data_dir` littering the machine / vm's tempdir

So improve the handling of that bit. Also have chrome write its stderr to a file (in the `user_data_dir`) so we can log that out in case it contains useful information as to why chrome didn't finish booting.

While at it backport the spawn changes from #206574 for consistency and simplicity: we don't need to test the platform for every single tour and the indirection makes updating the `Popen` parameters unnecessary complicated.
