ci cleanup

Agent:
Added GET /healthz that returns 200 immediately.
File: main.rs (router now includes /healthz).
CI workflow:
Start agent from target/release on both OSes.
Set SOCKTOP_ENABLE_SSL=0 explicitly.
Ubuntu: wait on curl http://127.0.0.1:3000/healthz (60s), log tail and ss/netstat on failure.
Windows: wait on Invoke-WebRequest to /healthz (60s), capture stdout/stderr, print netstat on failure.
File: .github/workflows/ci.yml.
