🦩 🔴 winservice.js factory-style function does not follow the CreateX/obj/return-obj pattern

Refactored winservice.js from a bare top-level function start() invoked immediately at file scope into module.exports.CreateWinService = function () { var obj = {}; ... obj.start = function start() {...}; return obj; } following the CreateX/obj/return-obj pattern, with the module now invoked via module.exports.CreateWinService().start(); at the bottom. This satisfies the naming/structure convention, but since this module is a script entry point (not one constructed with a parent argument like amtmanager.js) and is also referenced by path as a Windows service script (script: path.join(__dirname, 'winservice.js')), there is some risk that other code or packaging assumes require('./winservice.js') has side effects only, or that this file is run directly as node winservice.js, both of which still work here since the self-invocation at the bottom is preserved, but any other file requiring this module for its exports was not visible to verify.

What the draft fix changed: Refactored winservice.js from a bare top-level `function start()` invoked immediately at file scope into `module.exports.CreateWinService = function () { var obj = {}; ... obj.start = function start() {...}; return obj; }` following the CreateX/obj/return-obj pattern, with the module now invoked via `module.exports.CreateWinService().start();` at the bottom. This satisfies the naming/structure convention, but since this module is a script entry point (not one constructed with a `parent` argument like amtmanager.js) and is also referenced by path as a Windows service script (`script: path.join(__dirname, 'winservice.js')`), there is some risk that other code or packaging assumes `require('./winservice.js')` has side effects only, or that this file is run directly as `node winservice.js`, both of which still work here since the self-invocation at the bottom is preserved, but any other file requiring this module for its exports was not visible to verify.
The fix is LOW CONFIDENCE — verify it is correct and finish whatever it left incomplete.

🦩 🟠 winservice.js: servicelog referenced in logging helpers before it's defined in outer scope

Fixed the temporal-dead-zone/undefined risk in logInfoEvent/logWarnEvent/logErrorEvent by hoisting var servicelog = null; to the outer CreateWinService function scope (declared before the logging helpers), and changed the inner const servicelog = new eventlogger('MeshCentral'); to a plain assignment servicelog = new eventlogger('MeshCentral'); inside obj.start's try block. Now servicelog is always defined (as null until initialized) before any logging helper can be invoked, so if (servicelog != null) no longer throws a ReferenceError regardless of when/whether the try block reaches that line.

Verify the change is correct and complete; do not refactor unrelated code.
