Add SuperSlab refcount pinning and critical failsafe guards

Major breakthrough: sh8bench now completes without SIGSEGV!
Added defensive refcounting and failsafe mechanisms to prevent
use-after-free and corruption propagation.

Changes:
1. SuperSlab Refcount Pinning (core/box/tls_sll_box.h)
   - tls_sll_push_impl: increment refcount before adding to list
   - tls_sll_pop_impl: decrement refcount when removing from list
   - Prevents SuperSlab from being freed while TLS SLL holds pointers

2. SuperSlab Release Guards (core/superslab_allocate.c, shared_pool_release.c)
   - Check refcount > 0 before freeing SuperSlab
   - If refcount > 0, defer release instead of freeing
   - Prevents use-after-free when TLS/remote/freelist hold stale pointers

3. TLS SLL Next Pointer Validation (core/box/tls_sll_box.h)
   - Detect invalid next pointer during traversal
   - Log [TLS_SLL_NEXT_INVALID] when detected
   - Drop list to prevent corruption propagation

4. Unified Cache Freelist Validation (core/front/tiny_unified_cache.c)
   - Validate freelist head before use
   - Log [UNIFIED_FREELIST_INVALID] for corrupted lists
   - Defensive drop to prevent bad allocations

5. Early Refcount Decrement Fix (core/tiny_free_fast.inc.h)
   - Removed ss_active_dec_one from fast path
   - Prevents premature refcount depletion
   - Defers decrement to proper cleanup path

Test Results:
 sh8bench completes successfully (exit code 0)
 No SIGSEGV or ABORT signals
 Short runs (5s) crash-free
⚠️ Multiple [TLS_SLL_NEXT_INVALID] / [UNIFIED_FREELIST_INVALID] logged
⚠️ Invalid pointers still present (stale references exist)

Status Analysis:
- Stability: ACHIEVED (no crashes)
- Root Cause: NOT FULLY SOLVED (invalid pointers remain)
- Approach: Defensive + refcount guards working well

Remaining Issues:
 Why does SuperSlab get unregistered while TLS SLL holds pointers?
 SuperSlab lifecycle: remote_queue / adopt / LRU interactions?
 Stale pointers indicate improper SuperSlab lifetime management

Performance Impact:
- Refcount operations: +1-3 cycles per push/pop (minor)
- Validation checks: +2-5 cycles (minor)
- Overall: < 5% overhead estimated

Next Investigation:
- Trace SuperSlab lifecycle (allocation → registration → unregister → free)
- Check remote_queue handling
- Verify adopt/LRU mechanisms
- Correlate stale pointer logs with SuperSlab unregister events

Log Volume Warning:
- May produce many diagnostic logs on long runs
- Consider ENV gating for production

Technical Notes:
- Refcount is per-SuperSlab, not global
- Guards prevent symptom propagation, not root cause
- Root cause is in SuperSlab lifecycle management
