Review feedback from @chatgpt-codex-connector (P1): callers that pass
`tryNative: false` rely on jiti's alias rewriting (e.g.
`bundled-capability-runtime` in Vitest+dist mode narrows the SDK
slice through shim aliases). Route everything through the jiti
loader when `tryNative` is false so those rewrites still apply.
Review feedback from @greptile-apps (P2): forward the full argument
tuple through to the jiti fallback with `...rest` so any future
loader option argument is not silently dropped by the wrapper.

Every CLI invocation reads the config snapshot, which pulls bundled
channel doctor contracts and setup surfaces through
`getCachedPluginJitiLoader`. jiti's TS→JS transform pipeline adds
several seconds of per-load overhead on slower hosts (NAS profiling
shows ~78% of `openclaw config get` wall time spent inside the jiti
library), and that overhead is pure waste for the already-compiled
`.js` artifacts shipped in dist/.
Wrap the loader returned by `getCachedPluginJitiLoader` so that
compiled JS targets go through `tryNativeRequireJavaScriptModule`
first. Jiti stays on the hot path for:
- TS/TSX/MTS/CTS sources
- paths the native-require helper declines (Windows by default, or
module-resolution fallbacks)
This centralises the fast path that already existed — inside
`doctor-contract-registry` and `channel-entry-contract` — and extends
it to every caller that goes through the jiti loader cache.
Benchmark on a modest NAS (Node 22.22, ZFS, telegram + discord
configured):
| command | before | after |
|------------------|-------:|------:|
| config get X | 24s | 6s |
| status | 45s | 18s |
| devices list | 55s | 26s |
| nodes status | 55s | 26s |
Fixes the slow config/status/devices/nodes read paths reported in
openclaw#62842. Remaining time is dominated by non-jiti code paths
(config schema validation, eager provider-plugin module eval) that
are out of scope for this patch.
