A first-ever ddev start pulls several GB across the webserver, db,
router, and ssh-agent images, which reads as the app hanging rather
than as an expected download. Warms the cache automatically once per
DDEV version (re-warms after a DDEV upgrade, since image tags are
versioned) using `ddev version --json-output` to discover the exact
default image tags — stays correct without hardcoding image names.
Runs fire-and-forget right after window creation so it never blocks
app startup or usage, and no-ops quietly if ddev/docker aren't
available yet.

handleSubmit awaited the entire post-create chain (start, then for
WordPress: download core + install) before ever calling onClose(),
so the modal overlay sat there for the whole multi-step process with
no way to see what was actually happening — the terminal panel that
already tracks this operation's live output was hidden behind it.
Close right after the quick config step succeeds and let post-create
continue as a tracked background operation; failures still surface
via the existing toast/terminal-panel error handling regardless of
modal state.
Also extracts the project-name validation helpers out of
CreateProjectModal.tsx into their own module — mixing component and
non-component exports in one file breaks React Fast Refresh.

Node's spawn() leaves a child's stdin as an open-but-silent pipe by
default. A GUI-spawned ddev process has no terminal to answer a
prompt (e.g. the first-run telemetry opt-in), and a blocking read on
an open pipe with no EOF just hangs indefinitely instead of failing
or defaulting — reproduced by a "Start" operation that never
progressed past "Permission to beam up?" with no way to recover short
of force-quitting the app. Closing stdin gives ddev an immediate EOF,
which it treats as "use the default" rather than blocking.
Also strips ANSI escape codes from stdout/stderr before forwarding to
the renderer — ddev colorizes output unconditionally regardless of
TTY-ness, so the terminal panel and log viewer were rendering literal
escape sequences as visible text.

DDEV project names must be valid hostname labels. The wizard
auto-filled the name from the picked folder's basename verbatim, so a
folder like "Aurora Admin" produced a name with a space that DDEV's
`ddev config` rejected with an opaque CLI error the UI never
surfaced. Slugify the auto-filled name and block manual entry of
invalid names before they ever reach the ddev CLI.

Cross-platform copy left dozens of these tracked as untracked noise;
.gitignore already covered .DS_Store but not its ._* siblings.
