app: a termination signal closes the window the normal way, not as a crash (#248)

SIGTERM, SIGINT and SIGHUP ended the process on the spot: no last autosave,
and the crash journal left behind became an unclean_exit report at the next
start. The report on #248's machine ("ended without a clean exit between
commands (last: control ui.capture)") has that exact signature and is
reproduced by kill -TERM after a capture; 500 captures of the solved
crank-mirror (50 app runs), 30 CLI snapshots and 250 MCP headless
screenshots exited cleanly. The first signal now asks the window to close;
a second ends the process with the signal's default action.
