[backport] Cherry-pick manager flag refactor to core/1.27 (#5646)

Cherry-pick of PR #5635: refactor: Change manager flag from
--disable-manager to --enable-manager

## Summary
- Cherry-picked commit a41b8a6
- Updates frontend to align with backend changes in ComfyUI core PR
#7555
- Changed manager startup argument from `--disable-manager` (opt-out) to
`--enable-manager` (opt-in)
- Manager is now disabled by default unless explicitly enabled

## Original Changes
- Modified `useManagerState.ts` to check for `--enable-manager` flag
presence
- Inverted logic: manager is disabled when the flag is NOT present
- Updated all related tests to reflect the new opt-in behavior
- Fixed edge case where `systemStats` is null

## Testing
- ✅ TypeScript type checking passed
- ✅ ESLint linting passed
- ✅ Prettier formatting passed
- ✅ Knip found no issues
- ✅ Cherry-pick applied cleanly with no conflicts

## Related
- Original PR: #5635
- Backend PR: comfyanonymous/ComfyUI#7555

This hotfix ensures the frontend manager flag logic matches the backend
changes.
