test: Add comprehensive tests for browser helper filtering

Documents the expected behavior and ensures browser helper filtering works correctly:
- Tests browser-specific error messages when main browser isn't running
- Verifies successful capture when main browser is found (not helpers)
- Documents the problem this fixes (no more confusing 'no capturable windows' errors)
- Ensures non-browser applications continue to work normally
