```
tmux.Session.SelectWindow(ctx: context.Context, request: SelectWindowRequest) -> (Window, error)
```

SelectWindow makes one winlink current in the receiver session and returns that freshly materialized session-specific [Window]. WindowID is combined with the receiver SessionID, because a WindowID alone does not distinguish linked views. The selection is session-scoped; it does not promise focus for clients attached to other sessions.

Command or refresh failures return zero because the selected view cannot be
identified without refresh. Transport errors are delivery-ambiguous.
