Henrik RydgårdandClaude Sonnet 5 75b9df8384 Debugger: Route MemorySubscriber through the CPU thread, drop the forced-pause dance
Every memory.read*/write*/search endpoint used to call LockMemoryAndCPU(),
which - unless the CPU was already stepping - busy-waited for coreState to
settle, force-paused a running game with Core_Break(), and blocked on
Core_WaitInactive() before touching memory, just to get exclusive access
from the WebSocket handler thread. It also took MIPSComp::jitLock around
saving/restoring emuhack ops for the same reason.

Now the whole body of each handler runs inside Core_RunOnCPUThread(), so
none of that is needed for CPU-thread exclusivity: reads/writes happen
inline on the CPU thread itself, whether the game is running or stepping,
without ever pausing it. Confirmed live that memory reads/search now
complete while coreState stays CORE_RUNNING_CPU throughout - no more
stepping flicker on every debugger memory poll.

Kept Memory::MemoryInitedLock (guards against Memory::Shutdown() racing in
from a different thread, e.g. the UI thread stopping the game - unrelated
to the WebSocket-thread-vs-CPU-thread problem) and MIPSComp::jitLock around
the emuhack save/restore (guards against a UI-triggered CPU core switch,
also a different thread than the one Core_RunOnCPUThread targets).

Same caveats as previous conversions: memory.read for a very large 'size'
now base64-encodes on the CPU thread itself, and memory.search still has no
size cap - both will now block the CPU thread's own frame pump for their
duration on a large enough request. Noted inline, not fixed here.

Replaced remaining `auto` locals with concrete types.
