[BUG] Browser Mode extension is broken on MacOS

[n0samu]

Describe the bug Games that use :browser-mode: fail to launch on MacOS. When clicking the Play button, nothing happens. One of the games affected is Mini Metro: London.

Expected behavior These games should launch in a separate launcher window (Browser Mode).

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: MacOS Catalina (10.15)
• Flashpoint Version: 10.1 Infinity
• Log text: INFO [21:13:44] Mini Metro: London: Mini Metro: London failed to start - spawn "/Users/nosamu/Flashpoint/Flashpoint 10.1 Infinity - Modded/Launcher/Flashpoint.app/Contents/Frameworks/Flashpoint Helper.app/Contents/MacOS/Flashpoint Helper" ENOENT

Additional context I have verified that the Flashpoint Helper path actually exists, despite the launcher's ENOENT message.

Can you make sure this happens on the latest version

I've hunted it down: quotes are added to the filename regardless of execFile on Mac and Linux. https://github.com/FlashpointProject/launcher/blob/6d2bfc469253c998e9da9a73df486702a7785d94/src/back/responses.ts#L1354-L1364

I'll be changing execFile(file, args) to spawn(file, args, {'shell':false}) in an upcoming PR. I'll fix this in that too.

Unfortunately, Browser Mode still seems to be broken. Here are the errors I receive now:
