lucasmerlin 622218e94f Add egui_inspection crate and eframe inspection hooks

New `egui_inspection` crate ships:
- `protocol` (default): wire types + length-prefixed msgpack framing for the
  inspector ↔ egui-peer connection. Transport-neutral (stdio / unix socket / TCP).
- `plugin`: `InspectionPlugin`, an `egui::Plugin` that dials a unix socket from
  `EGUI_INSPECTION_SOCKET`, streams frames + accesskit tree updates, and applies
  inbound `InspectorCommand`s back into the running `egui::Context`.

eframe gains an `inspection` feature that auto-attaches the plugin during native
startup (glow + wgpu integrations) when the env var is set. Connection failures
log via `log::warn!` and do not abort startup.

Lives in its own crate (rather than `egui_kittest`) so eframe can pull the
protocol in without picking up the test harness, and so external tools can
depend on it directly.

egui_inspection

Wire protocol and egui::Plugin for live inspection of running egui apps and kittest harnesses.

Two layers:

protocol (default feature): length-prefixed MessagePack messages used by egui_kittest's inspector, the external kittest_inspector UI, and the egui_kittest_mcp server.
plugin (opt-in): an egui::Plugin implementation that streams frames + AccessKit tree updates to an inspector over a unix domain socket and applies received InspectorCommands back into the running app. Auto-attaches when EGUI_INSPECTION_SOCKET is set.
