The run-shared-scripts tool spawned child processes but never waited for them to complete or captured their exit codes, causing all scripts to appear successful even when they failed. This made it impossible for CI systems and build pipelines to detect failures. The run() function now returns a Promise that resolves with the child process exit code, and the bin script awaits this result and sets process.exitCode accordingly. - Modified lib/index.js: wrap spawn in Promise, resolve with exit code - Modified bin/rss.js: await run() and set process.exitCode - Return 0 for successful execution and dry-run mode - Return 1 when script name not found in rss configuration - Added example test scripts to verify exit code propagation Signed-off-by: Eric Wheeler <git-default@z.ewheeler.org>

Summary
Fixes a fundamental bug where run-shared-scripts never propagates exit codes from spawned processes, causing all scripts to appear successful even when they fail.
Previously, the run() function spawned child processes but never waited for them or captured their exit codes. This made it impossible for CI systems and build pipelines to detect failures.
