macOS: force fresh exFAT layout when formatting volumes

Browse Source 
Pass -R to newfs_exfat in both GUI and text-mode volume creation so macOS derives a fresh exFAT layout instead of preserving stale geometry from an existing exFAT boot region. This matches Finder/Disk Utility erase behavior.

Validated on Windows 11: chkdsk no longer reports boot-region corruption on volumes formatted this way.

Fixes #1021.
