feat: enhance PGO with detailed command execution logging

- Add verbose command output showing exact commands executed during PGO
- Show all client commands used to generate dserver load
- Display profile merging commands with go tool pprof
- Document all commands in pgo_commands_detail.md
- Improve user visibility into PGO workflow execution

This makes it easier to understand and debug the PGO process by
showing exactly what commands are being run at each step.
