feat: Add FlashEffect for audio/visual sync testing

- FlashEffect: Beat-synchronized white flash using ShaderComposer
- Loads shader from assets (flash.wgsl) with sequence_uniforms include
- Uses pow(1.0 - beat_phase, 4.0) for sharp flash at beat start
- Updated test_demo.seq to use FlashEffect (was HeptagonEffect)
- Added FlashEffect to test suite (test_demo_effects.cc)
- Made cnn_test conditional on main workspace (fixes build error)
- Flash intensity: 1.0 at beat start, fades to 0.0 by beat end
