docs(picker): record the pwsh-first DPI-aware Windows picker fix
README pairs document the pwsh-preferred adapter and the PowerShell 7 requirement for the modern dialog; the 2026-07-27 picker note's Windows adapter fact is updated in place, and a new bug-fix note records the defect, the fallback decision, and the DPI awareness rationale.

The **native-OS-chooser backend** of the [directory-picker seam](../directory-picker/README.md): `NativeDirectoryPicker` registers `ctx.directoryPicker` with the `native` capability, whose `pick(signal)` opens one native chooser per call and resolves the chosen absolute path (`null` on cancel). Platform tools run without a shell: `osascript` on macOS, an STA PowerShell `FolderBrowserDialog` on Windows, and Zenity with a KDialog fallback on Linux; the caller's abort terminates the native process. Only viable when the operator sits at the host's display — remote deployments compose [`-browse`](../directory-picker-browse/README.md) instead. The command boundary (`DirectoryPickerRunner`) and platform facts are injectable for deterministic tests. The shared no-shell subprocess runner lives in [`dsh-native-command`](../../util/native-command/README.md).

**Dual-face package**: the browser half (`./client`) registers a renderless flow occupant into [ui-workspace's](../../client/ui-workspace/README.md) two directory-flow holes — each `open` request drives `host.pickDirectory` and reports the one outcome (picked path / cancel / failure) through the hole's owner conversation. One cordis.yml row therefore composes both sides of the native interaction; the client carries no capability-kind branching, and mounting a second flow package fails at load (the holes are `single` kind).

## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
|
||||
|
||||
- **Linux requires desktop tooling** — with neither Zenity nor KDialog installed, `pick` rejects with an actionable error; it does not fall back to a typed-path prompt (the browse backend is that fallback at the composition level).
|
||||
- **Windows needs PowerShell 7 for the modern picker** — `pwsh` renders the Explorer-style folder dialog; a machine with only Windows PowerShell 5.1 falls back to the legacy folder tree, DPI-corrected but not the modern UI.
