+/**
+ * Replace a file via rename, retrying briefly on transient OS-level errors.
+ *
+ * POSIX `rename(2)` is atomic between source and destination, so concurrent
+ * writers each rename onto the same target without conflict. Windows
+ * `MoveFileExW` is different: it fails with EPERM/EACCES/EBUSY if the
+ * target is currently being renamed by *another* process — a short race
+ * window that fires reliably under our PostToolUse + statusline concurrency.
+ *
+ * To stay portable, retry up to 5 times with exponential backoff (20 ms,
+ * 40, 80, 160, 320) on the Windows-only transient codes. POSIX runs hit
+ * the first try and exit immediately. Other error codes (ENOENT, ENOSPC,
+ * EROFS, …) re-throw without retry — they are not transient.
+ *
+ * Sleep uses `Atomics.wait` on a throwaway SharedArrayBuffer so the
+ * retry path does not busy-spin the CPU. This works on the main thread
+ * in Node ≥ 17 (and on workers in earlier versions).
