feat(pathfinding): JSONL recorder + public bake helpers (#2449)
## Summary

Adds two pieces of pathfinding tooling on top of PR #2448's lazy `.swb` infrastructure:

- **`PathfindRecorder`** — admin-toggled JSONL telemetry capture; one record per `BitmapAStarAlgorithm.Find` call. Output format matches the BDN harness corpus, so production traffic can be captured and replayed in benchmarks without an adapter.
- **Public bake helpers on `StepCache`** — `ComputeLiveTileDataHash`, `TryReadTileDataHashFromFile`, `BakeMap`, `ClearResidentChunks`. Lets the benchmark project (and any future bake utility) drive cache fill + persist without exposing internal types.

The companion BDN harness update lives in [ModernUO-Benchmarks#kb/pathfinding-pr4-bench](https://github.com/modernuo/ModernUO-Benchmarks/tree/kb/pathfinding-pr4-bench): porting `Benchmarks/PathfindInGame/` from the `kb/ai_pathfinding` branch to the API shipped in #2446–#2448.

## What's in this PR

### `PathfindRecorder` (`PathfindRecorder.cs`)
- Holds a single `StreamWriter` open while recording; its internal buffer absorbs per-record writes without per-call `File.AppendAllText`.
- Single `bool` check on the hot path; cheap when disabled.
- Disabling flushes + disposes; an IO failure during write also disables the recorder.
- Server config:
  - `pathfinding.recorder.enable` — bool, default `false`. Read on boot via `GetOrUpdateSetting`.
  - `pathfinding.recorder.path` — default `<basedir>/Data/Pathfinding/recordings/pathfinds.jsonl`.
- Hooked into `BitmapAStarAlgorithm.Find` — runs once per call, does nothing when disabled.
- Admin command: `[PathRecord [on|off|flush|status]` (default `status`).

### Public cache helpers
- `static ulong StepCache.ComputeLiveTileDataHash()` — wraps the file module's hash function for staleness checks.
- `static bool StepCache.TryReadTileDataHashFromFile(string, out ulong)` — peeks at a `.swb` file's hash field (20 bytes).
- `int StepCache.BakeMap(int, string)` — walks every chunk in the map, populates resident set, saves. Offline / fixture use; blocks for many seconds on a full-map walk.
- `void StepCache.ClearResidentChunks()` — drops chunks + zeros counters but keeps lazy readers open. Lets benchmark loops measure "first query after boot" cost across iterations without the lazy-reader reopen overhead.
