Description
Summary
This change ensures that long-running shell commands (such as programs that produce infrequent or delayed standard output) do not cause the tool to hang indefinitely while waiting for output.
More Information
Replaced direct access to self._process.stdout._buffer.decode() with await self._process.stdout.readline() for safe incremental reading.
Accumulates stdout content line by line into a local output buffer.
Retains the original sentinel-based error_code detection mechanism (,,,,bash-command-exit-ERROR_CODE-banner,,,,).
Maintains compatibility with both Unix-like and Windows shells.
Preserves stderr reading and timeout handling.
