fix: code review cleanup — bugs, dead code, factorization (-167 lines)

Bugs:
- B1: fix dead tempo debug (prev_tempo captured after assignment)
- B2: fix ReloadAssetsFromFile leak for disk-loaded assets; simplify DropAsset
- B3: fix get_free_pool_slot leak (unregister synth + free data on reuse)
- B4: volatile -> std::atomic with acquire/release in miniaudio_backend, synth
- B5: fix unaligned reads in scene_loader (memcpy-based read_f32/read_u32)
- B6: fix shader module + BGL + pipeline layout leaks in gpu.cc, pipeline_builder

Dead code:
- D1: remove unused particle_defs.h
- D3: remove create_post_process_pipeline_simple (zero callers)
- D4: remove empty gpu_draw()
- D5: remove write-only Hybrid3D::initialized_
- D6: remove legacy pending buffer path in audio.cc

Factorization:
- F1: Effect::run_fullscreen_pass() replaces boilerplate in 5 effects
- F2: particle_common.wgsl snippet, #include in 3 WGSL shaders
- F3: gpu_create_shader_module() helper, used in 3 call sites
- F5: get_world_aabb() shared between bvh.cc and physics.cc
- F6: samples_to_seconds() replaces 6 inline expressions
- F7: gpu_create_linear/nearest_sampler use SamplerCache; add nearest() preset

37/37 tests passing.

handoff(Claude): code review batch — all items verified, no regressions.
