fix: replace python3 with py/jq throughout scripts and docs

Windows Store python3 stub returns exit 49 instead of running Python.
Replace with: py (Windows launcher) for actual Python code, jq for
simple JSON extraction. Reorder fallback loops to try py first.
Add Bash(py:*) to settings.local.json allowlist.
