Subject: [PATCH] fix(ci): restore Windows smoke tests instead of full test
 suite
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

PR #904 incorrectly changed Windows from smoke tests to full `go test ./...`
which times out (see bd-bmev). Windows full tests take 20+ minutes vs ~1min
for smoke tests.

Restore the original approach:
- Linux/macOS: full test suite with `go test ./...`
- Windows: smoke tests only (build + basic CRUD commands)
