Use exit code for route command success check on Windows

The tunnel route command on Windows can fail when a route already
exists. Instead of parsing stderr output, check the command exit
code directly for more reliable success detection. Also handle
the 'route already exists' case gracefully by treating it as a
non-fatal condition.
