fix(url): preserve intrinsic identity through the legacy Window alias

Expose webkitURL through the existing lazy Window-only alias registry so it shares the realm URL constructor and retains independent writable/configurable global bindings.

Make URL.parse construct through the realm intrinsic registry instead of reading the mutable public URL property. This prevents replaced constructors, getters, deletion, and argument-conversion side effects from changing the factory result or the realm of its prototype.

Add five Window regressions for laziness, descriptors, independent rebinding/deletion, named properties, argument-conversion side effects, and retained cross-realm constructors. Extend Dedicated/Shared/Service Worker checks to verify the alias is absent and parsing ignores a replaced public URL binding.

Validation: cargo fmt --all; cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings; cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast (17637 passed, 13 skipped). All 27 targeted regressions pass.

CLI and CDP agree on all 54 fixed comparison cases: 51 to 52 passing cases, 7858 to 7859 passing subtests, no new failures. URL idlharness Window is now fully passing; the original 50-case URL/Location selection is 49/50, with only the existing srcdoc scrolling failure. The additional Web Audio historical failures are unchanged.

CDP smoke: 42/43 groups pass. Puppeteer cannot start because node is absent, also reproduced with the before binary. Artifacts: target/wpt-url-alias-20260908-ikStj8. Release SHA256: 1e6918fd6fc754f6aa5bebcd4582e904ecf113ae97165723c9b1b350225fc0bc.
