threads(M1): address-space reference counting

Route address-space lifetime through a refcount keyed by the page-table root
(scheduler.zig aspace_refs): retainAspace on the spawnUserLocked success path,
releaseAspace from both teardown paths (exitUserLocked, destroyTaskLocked),
destroying the space only when the last task on it exits. Behaviour is identical
today (every space has exactly one task); this is the foundation shared-address-
space threads (docs/threading.md) build on.

Test-observable liveAspaceCount/aspaceDestroyCount + a new aspace-refcount kernel
self-test and QEMU case: spawn and reap 5 ring-3 probes, assert live spaces return
to baseline and destructions advance by exactly 5 (destroyed once each, no leak,
no double-free). Gate passes; 13 guardrail cases green; build + host tests clean.
