build+perf: wasm-opt the shipped wasm, and measure real frames in CI

emcc only runs Binaryen at link -O2+ (link.py: should_run_binaryen_optimizer
returns OPT_LEVEL >= 2) and we link at -O1, so the shipped module had never seen
wasm-opt at all — it kept its entire 19.56 MB name section, ~20% of the editor
(-sJSPI sets ASYNCIFY=2, which suppresses wasm-ld's --strip-debug, leaving
wasm-opt as the only thing that would drop it). Step 8.2 runs it post-link and
in-container, so CI's cached compile phase covers it and the host post-process
stays pure-host.

Default -O2, picked by measuring every level on the same module: -O0 already
captures 27% of the raw win (it is mostly the name section), -O2 costs 23 s and
gives the best frame rate, and -O3/-O4/-Os/-Oz cost 48-132 s for at most 1.5%
more brotli — -O4 is not even smaller than -O3. Targets that already link -O2/-Oz
(occ_service, kicad_tools) are skipped by testing for the target_features
section, which emcc strips whenever it ran the optimizer itself, so there is no
hard-coded target list to drift. Feature flags come from the module's own
target_features section and so cannot diverge from the link.

The perf specs reported requestAnimationFrame ticks as "FPS". That is not a frame
rate: rAF fires on the compositor's schedule whether or not the GAL redrew, and
it read 120/s on a board where the renderer completed zero frames in six seconds.
measureInteractionFps now counts completed GAL frames — runs of draws to the
default framebuffer, exactly one per frame in every AA mode — and drives a pure
middle-drag pan after a zoom-to-fit. Mixing wheel zoom into the drive made the
result depend on where the wheel left the view: +-20% across identical repeats,
against +-2% for pan alone. The report gains a GAL fps column with a regression
flag on the 1x number; rAF is kept so historical runs stay comparable.

CI has no GPU, so its number is a software-rasteriser redraw rate — a regression
signal, not a user-facing frame rate. Method and measurements in the bench report.
