  1. Use job API for system() calls in GUI Vim to avoid overhead 

    In GUI Vim (gvim, MacVim), each system() call incurs significant
overhead due to command prompt window creation, making operations
like PlugDiff ~5x slower than in terminal Vim or Neovim.

Add s:system_job() which uses job_start with file-based output to
run commands without that overhead, and use it in s:system() when
running in GUI Vim with job support.

Since v:shell_error is read-only in Vim 9, introduce s:shell_error
which is set by both code paths and used at all call sites.

Fixes #1312

  2. Avoid busy-wait in s:system_job() polling loop 

    Add sleep 10m to the job_status polling loop so it yields the CPU
instead of spinning at 100% while waiting for the job to finish.
