fix(nwsync): stream emit so peak memory tracks the largest resource (#76) (#78)
Closes #76. Part of #54.

`nwsync emit` held roughly 5× the artifact size in RAM, so ovh-main (7 GB, no swap) OOM-killed it on any hak over ~1.4 GB. That blocked the backfill in sow-assets-manifest and would have killed the next release rebuilding a large hak.

## What it does

- `erf.ReadIndex` / `erf.ReadPayload` — parse the header and resource table only, read one payload on demand. `erf.Read` keeps its shape but returns payloads as subslices of the buffer instead of fresh copies, which removes one full copy for the `pipeline` callers too. Callers must not mutate `Resource.Data`; the doc comment says so and no caller does.
- `nwsync.Emit` opens the artifact, hashes it by streaming for the key check (through a section reader, so the file offset stays put), then hashes, compresses and stores one resource at a time. The archive is never resident. Shadowed duplicate resrefs are now never read at all.
- Bounds checks in `ReadIndex` moved to `int64`, so key/resource-list offsets can no longer overflow.

## Not in the issue, but memory-motivated

The zstd blob encoder ran at the default concurrency, which is one encoder per CPU, each holding a window-sized history — about 200 MB of live heap doing nothing on a 24-core runner. `EncodeAll` is single-threaded per call, so concurrency 1 costs nothing. `TestSingleThreadedEncoderMatchesDefault` pins the claim that blobs come out byte-identical.

## Measured

Peak heap during emit, sampled 1 ms:

| hak | before | after |
|-----|--------|-------|
| 8 MB | 155 MB | 21 MB |
| 64 MB | 289 MB | 22 MB |

Flat, as the acceptance asks. `TestEmitPeakMemoryDoesNotScaleWithArtifactSize` fails if the 64 MB fixture costs more than the 8 MB one plus 24 MB of slack.

## Gaps

- The regression check measures Go heap, not RSS, and its largest fixture is 64 MB — a multi-GB run was not done here. A 2.15 GB hak now needs about the same ~22 MB the 64 MB one does, so the 5 GB budget is not close, but that is inference from the flat curve, not a measurement.
- mmap was suggested in the issue and skipped. Payload buffers are still anonymous, but they are one resource each (≤15 MiB), so making them file-backed buys nothing now.
