Moe Charm (CI) b6d9c92f71 Fix: SuperSlab guess loop & header magic SEGV (random_mixed/mid_large_mt)
## Problem
bench_random_mixed_hakmem and bench_mid_large_mt_hakmem crashed with SEGV:
- random_mixed: Exit 139 (SEGV) 
- mid_large_mt: Exit 139 (SEGV) 
- Larson: 838K ops/s  (worked fine)

Error: Unmapped memory dereference in free path

## Root Causes (2 bugs found by Ultrathink Task)

### Bug 1: Guess Loop (core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:92-95)
```c
for (int lg=21; lg>=20; lg--) {
    SuperSlab* guess=(SuperSlab*)((uintptr_t)ptr & ~mask);
    if (guess && guess->magic==SUPERSLAB_MAGIC) {  // ← SEGV
        // Dereferences unmapped memory
    }
}
```

### Bug 2: Header Magic Check (core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:115)
```c
void* raw = (char*)ptr - HEADER_SIZE;
AllocHeader* hdr = (AllocHeader*)raw;
if (hdr->magic != HAKMEM_MAGIC) {  // ← SEGV
    // Dereferences unmapped memory if ptr has no header
}
```

**Why SEGV:**
- Registry lookup fails (allocation not from SuperSlab)
- Guess loop calculates 1MB/2MB aligned address
- No memory mapping validation
- Dereferences unmapped memory → SEGV

**Why Larson worked but random_mixed failed:**
- Larson: All from SuperSlab → registry hit → never reaches guess loop
- random_mixed: Diverse sizes (8-4096B) → registry miss → enters buggy paths

**Why LD_PRELOAD worked:**
- hak_core_init.inc.h:119-121 disables SuperSlab by default
- → SS-first path skipped → buggy code never executed

## Fix (2-part)

### Part 1: Remove Guess Loop
File: core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:92-95
- Deleted unsafe guess loop (4 lines)
- If registry lookup fails, allocation is not from SuperSlab

### Part 2: Add Memory Safety Check
File: core/hakmem_internal.h:277-294
```c
static inline int hak_is_memory_readable(void* addr) {
    unsigned char vec;
    return mincore(addr, 1, &vec) == 0;  // Check if mapped
}
```

File: core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:115-131
```c
if (!hak_is_memory_readable(raw)) {
    // Not accessible → route to appropriate handler
    // Prevents SEGV on unmapped memory
    goto done;
}
// Safe to dereference now
AllocHeader* hdr = (AllocHeader*)raw;
```

## Verification

| Test | Before | After | Result |
|------|--------|-------|--------|
| random_mixed (2KB) |  SEGV |  2.22M ops/s | 🎉 Fixed |
| random_mixed (4KB) |  SEGV |  2.58M ops/s | 🎉 Fixed |
| Larson 4T |  838K |  838K ops/s |  No regression |

**Performance Impact:** 0% (mincore only on fallback path)
