#31 ✨ feat: wrap execDdev command with XDEBUG_MODE=off

[Morgy93]

This pull request improves how shell commands are executed within the DdevUtils utility class to ensure that the Xdebug extension is disabled during execution, which helps prevent issues with command hanging or slowness. It also adds tests to verify the new behavior, including proper escaping of single quotes in commands.

Command execution improvements:

• Updated the execDdev method in DdevUtils to wrap commands with bash -c 'XDEBUG_MODE=off ...' so that Xdebug is disabled during execution, and added logic to escape single quotes in the command for safe shell execution.
• Refactored isToolInstalled and tool validation logic to use the updated execDdev method instead of directly calling execSync, ensuring consistent behavior and Xdebug handling. [1] [2]

Testing improvements:

• Added tests to confirm that execDdev wraps commands correctly with XDEBUG_MODE=off and that single quotes in commands are properly escaped.

Pull request overview

This PR enhances the DdevUtils class to prevent performance issues caused by Xdebug during command execution by automatically disabling it with XDEBUG_MODE=off. The implementation wraps commands in a bash shell to set environment variables and properly escapes single quotes for safe execution.

• Wraps all DDEV commands with bash -c 'XDEBUG_MODE=off ...' to disable Xdebug during execution
• Implements proper single quote escaping using the '\'' pattern for safe shell execution
• Refactors isToolInstalled and validateDdevTool to use the centralized execDdev method
