Orca Worker 610efa6c06 fix(windows): serialize native process-table reads across flag sets
The two flag-set readers could both be in flight at once, and the
vendored wrapper does not tolerate that. `getRawProcessList` pushes the
callback onto one list and calls the addon only when no request is in
progress, so a second concurrent caller's `flags` are DISCARDED and it
is handed the first caller's rows. Measured against the real addon:
identity issued first, both callers got the same array, 0 of 541 rows
with a command line. A detailed read overlapping an identity read
therefore returned a table with every command line empty, which agent
recognition reads as "no agent" -- silently, and only under concurrency.

Nothing already here excluded that. Each snapshot cache single-flights
only within itself, and the wedge set latches only after a read misses
its 3s deadline, so through the healthy ~12ms of a scan neither reader
excluded the other. Overlap is the normal state: panes poll detailed at
750ms while a teardown takes identity snapshots.

`nativeReadGate` admits one native read at a time across both flag sets.
It also fixes the relay path, where `adaptAddon` has no queue at all and
two simultaneous CreateToolhelp32Snapshot calls are the crash the
vendor's queue exists to prevent. Every link settles, so a wedged read
never strands a waiter; the waiter re-checks the wedge and rejects. With
one call outstanding, retention stays bounded at one callback rather
than one per reader.

Also from review:

- The CIM fallback now belongs to the detailed flag set alone, and the
  identity view projects that snapshot through `toIdentityRow`, so an
  identity row carries no command line on a no-binding host either.
- The concurrency test modelled the wrapper's coalescing queue, which
  the previous synchronous mock could not express; verified failing
  without the gate and passing with it.
- `agent-session-process-identity-probe` early-returns when the
  creation-time flag is unavailable, which no shipped addon build
  provides, instead of scanning the table to produce null.
- Corrected the cost framing: Memory took an OpenProcess(...|VM_READ)
  it never read through, so dropping it halves per-process handle opens
  and leaves the PEB/ReadProcessMemory telemetry unchanged.
