feat(host): add optional display lifecycle backend

+-- Optional native-host display lifecycle.
+--
+-- The engine always owns simulation and drawing. A packaged host may install
+-- one backend to observe per-frame updates and prepare/finalize a render target
+-- around an otherwise unchanged draw. With no backend installed every method
+-- is a no-op, which is the normal desktop and mobile path.
+--
+-- Backend methods are optional:
+--   backend:update(dt)
+--   backend:beginFrame(kind, subject)
+--   backend:endFrame(kind, subject)
+--
+-- `kind` is "editor", "touch_editor", "launcher", or "game". `subject` is
+-- the object whose existing draw method runs between beginFrame and endFrame.
