Launches Hopper through its documented CLI and injects only REA's owned bridge.
Hopper's hopper helper internally issues an AppleScript activate command.
Consequently, opening a target may bring Hopper to the foreground even though
REA first asks macOS to start the application hidden and in the background.
REA cannot reliably suppress that activation without replacing Hopper's
supported launcher; callers must treat possible foreground UI as an upstream
Hopper constraint, not as evidence that analysis failed.
The returned process is the short-lived launcher helper, not the Hopper app,
so REA does not claim ownership of the application's lifetime.
