Subject: [PATCH] run_macro: use fetch instead of api.get for /api/file

api.get assumes JSON responses, but /api/file/<name> returns raw
gcode text. The await threw on response.json() and start_pause()
never fired. Use fetch directly and await response.text() to make
sure FileHandler.get's select_file side effect has been processed
before mach.start() runs.
