fix(codex): sync codex_patcher.py with TOML inline-table fix

Mirrors claude_code_patcher@661eced — fixes Windows ucodex_install.ps1
crash 'Error loading config.toml: missing assignment' caused by
toml_value(dict) emitting Python str(dict) instead of TOML syntax.

Existing broken installs: re-run installer or manually delete the bad
section from ~/.codex/config.toml then re-run ucodex_install.
