fix(headless): add nullptr checks for GPU resource creation

- NodeRegistry::create_texture: skip texture creation when device is nullptr
- Post-process helpers: skip pipeline/bind group creation in headless mode
- SamplerCache: return nullptr for headless mode
- BindGroupLayoutBuilder/BindGroupBuilder: skip creation with null device
- RenderPipelineBuilder: skip shader module and pipeline creation in headless
- PlaceholderEffect: skip sampler creation in headless mode
- RotatingCubeEffect: early return in constructor for headless mode

WIP: Some effects (GaussianBlur, etc.) still need headless checks
