README, HOWTO and .env.example: a changed port takes effect when bun run dev restarts (V8, third fresh reader)

Browse source 
A fresh reader given only the README and the HOWTO reached the Studio and a plugin's /__leaf page with
nothing else needed, but one step. After "port 8090 is already in use ... set DX_PB_PORT", neither
doc said the setting is read when bun run dev starts, so the new port only applies after a restart.
The README copies .env.example before starting the server, and the port message appears only once it
runs, so the steps looped with no stated way out. All three places that mention DX_PB_PORT now say to
pick a free port and restart.
