Description

https://windows.spacetimedb.com/ contains a TODO task that reads:
# TODO: do this in spacetimedb-update $InstallDir = Join-Path ([Environment]::GetFolderPath("LocalApplicationData")) "SpacetimeDB" UpdatePathIfNotExists $InstallDir Write-Output "We have added spacetimedb to your Path. You may have to logout and log back in to reload your environment."

We want to move the logic that sets the PATH environment variable on windows to be in spacetime-update instead of in a PowerShell script.

Research direction

Start at windows.spacetimedb.com and inspect the PowerShell script containing the TODO, then locate the spacetimedb-update entry point that should own this behavior. Confirm that the PATH update logic is handled by spacetimedb-update rather than the script, and verify the Windows update flow.
