MacOS creates new windows from CLI #8501

Description

@UvuvDev

Version and Platform (required):

  • Binary Ninja Version: 6.0.1561
  • Edition: Ultimate
  • OS: MacOS
  • OS Version: 26 and 27
  • CPU Architecture: M3 Pro

Bug Description:
MacOS windows and tabs are not functioning correctly. Here is a couple of examples of behavior:

  1. Opening a project that hasn't been opened this session will cause the window to rapidly close and reopen to the project browser.

  2. Opening a project that has been opened this session will leave the first new tab openImage

  3. Opening a Binary Ninja URL from command line with open binaryninja:/.... will always make a new window, which does not happen on Windows or Linux.

  4. Open binaryninja:/bin/ls?expr=0x404da0+0n8 twice and observe that it makes a new tab of the same binary rather than navigating to a new one.

Additional Information:
I think these are all connected bugs which is why I'm filing them together. If necessary we can break this up into sub-issues. I don't think it is a Qt problem, due to the CLI not working either.
