refactor(image-cache): replace warn_if_stale with StaleImageError; add launch template

- image_cache: StaleImageError exception + check_stale/check_stale_path (raise instead of warn)
- BottleBackend.launch: template method (skip_stale flag) that calls _image_stale_checks then _launch_impl
- Each backend: _image_stale_checks delegates to a stale_checks() function in its launch module; _launch_impl replaces launch override
- macos_container: adds image_created_at to util, cached-image support in _build_images, stale_checks
- cli/start.py: catches StaleImageError, prompts interactively, retries with skip_stale=True; headless mode dies on it
