fix(worker): re-exec after install_runtime so imports match the runtime (SIENTIAPDE-2214)

The worker imports sklearn (metrics, evidently) before
PluginStore.install_runtime replaces it on disk with the runtime's pinned
version, the same order that breaks every sklearn prediction in laborious.
After installing the runtime, the worker now replaces its process once
(SIENTIA_RUNTIME_READY=1 skips the second install), so every module is
loaded from the runtime's packages.
