Deep Architecture Polish & Hotfixes

This update addresses several deep-level architectural bottlenecks and unexpected execution flaws discovered during extreme stress-testing.

• Resolved Quadratic Background Bottleneck: Eliminated an O(N^2) collection-comparison routine during the background visibility cache clearance phase. The routine has been replaced with constant-time O(1) hash operations, resolving silent processing delays during extreme entity crowding.
• Fixed Co-Processor Tick Starvation: Corrected a counter-reset logic flaw that inadvertently forced the background spatial engine to execute on every single server tick instead of adhering to its intended 4Hz hardware throttle cycle.
• Isolated Compute Threads (Executor Rescue): Migrated all asynchronous hardware-accelerated tasks (both audio and spatial navigation) into dedicated, low-priority daemon executors. This architectural shift prevents hardware polling latencies from starving the JVM's common pool, entirely protecting native chunk loading and network I/O operations from co-processor interference.
• Eliminated Memory Controller Stalls: Introduced an intermediary RAM cache for the acoustic engine to prevent the client's main rendering thread from directly reading uncached mapped GPU memory. This completely resolves random frame-time spikes and micro-stuttering on the main graphics pipeline.
• Implemented Symmetric Trust for Line-of-Sight: Fixed an integration gap where negative visibility results from the hardware co-processor were being ignored, forcing the main CPU to redundantly re-calculate hidden entities. The engine now strictly trusts both positive and negative hardware spatial queries, drastically reducing CPU raycasting load behind opaque structures.
