Source install restarts stale global fbuild-daemon binary #830

Description

@zackees

A local source/editable install can install a fresh venv fbuild.exe but still restart a stale global daemon binary from %USERPROFILE%\.local\bin\fbuild-daemon.exe.

Observed after installing merged PR #828 / commit ba50fc5 into FastLED's venv:

.venv\Scripts\fbuild.exe --version
.venv\Scripts\fbuild.exe daemon restart
.venv\Scripts\fbuild.exe daemon status
Get-Process -Id <status-pid> | Select-Object Path

Result:

fbuild 2.3.13
Version: 2.2.27
Path: C:\Users\niteris\.local\bin\fbuild-daemon.exe

Expected: the CLI installed from source should spawn a matching daemon build from the same install/version, or install/update the daemon binary it will restart. Otherwise local fbuild fixes in daemon/core code cannot be validated downstream, and users can think they are testing a fresh fbuild while the daemon is still old.
