fix(sprite): use new --flag forms required by sprite CLI v0.0.1-rc43+ (#3409)

The sprite CLI rejects the legacy single-dash long-flag forms we still
emit, so `spawn run <agent>` fails on sprite at the very first remote
call (`sprite create -skip-console NAME`) before any agent install runs.

Updates the calls + tests to the supported forms:

- sprite create  -skip-console      → --skip-console
- sprite exec    -tty               → --tty
- sprite exec    -file SRC:DST      → --file SRC:DST
- sprite version  (subcommand gone) → sprite --version
- sprite url      (deprecated)      → sprite info  (URL still extracted
                                       via the existing https://… regex)

Bumps @openrouter/spawn to 1.0.44 so users on sprite pick up the fix on
their next run.

Reported by Andrew via Slack; tracking issue #3408.
