Two related fixes for the desktop helper:
1. Stop hammering the Intune sync trigger every 15 seconds. The old
loop called :do_sync (Start-ScheduledTask on Schedule #3) on every
failed check, which started a fresh CSP pull before the previous
one had time to complete - the Intune engine treats a re-trigger
as "start over" and kills in-flight policy application work, so
nothing ever finished. New cadence: trigger sync once at the start
of each step, then poll every 30 s, only re-trigger every 6 polls
(~3 min). POLL_SECS and RETRIGGER_POLLS are top-of-script knobs.
2. Stop pushing the QR code off the top of the window. The old loop
echoed "Checking again in 15s..." on a new line every iteration,
so after a few minutes the QR code (which contains the device ID
the operator scans) had scrolled out of view. Replaced the per-
iteration echo with a single self-redrawing status line using a
captured CR character (copy /Z trick) and <nul set /p, padded to
clear leftover characters. Important transitions ("Re-triggering
sync...", "[DONE] ...") still print echo. lines so they survive in
the scrollback as permanent history.
