refactor(gui_2): remove dead imports; lazy numpy/tkinter via _LazyModule proxy

Phase 5D of startup_speedup_20260606 track.

DEAD IMPORTS REMOVED (zero uses, safe to remove):
- 'import tomli_w' (line 18) - never referenced anywhere in gui_2.py
- 'from src import theme_nerv_fx as theme_fx' (line 59) - never
  referenced; the actual NERV FX objects are created in src/theme_2.py
  and accessed via render_post_fx()

The theme_nerv_fx removal saves the full ~254ms import of
src.theme_nerv_fx on the main thread.

LAZY PROXY PATTERN for heavy feature-gated modules:
- 'import numpy as np' (line 9) - used in 1 place (plot_lines)
- 'from tkinter import filedialog, Tk' (lines 30, 34) - duplicates
  removed, 13 use sites now go through the proxy

Added a _LazyModule class that defers module loading until first
attribute access or call. The proxy is a transparent replacement:
'np.array(...)' and 'Tk()' continue to work unchanged. The import
only fires on first use, then is cached in sys.modules for O(1)
subsequent access.

ARCHITECTURAL NOTE: This is a general-purpose pattern that can be
used for any module that should not be in the main thread's import
chain. The Phase 5A 'lazy registry proxy' was a similar idea but
custom-tailored to one use case; _LazyModule is the general form.

EFFECTIVENESS (estimated from baseline):
- src.theme_nerv_fx removal: ~254ms saved
- numpy deferral: ~65ms saved (when not plotting); 0ms saved if the
  user is using numpy (imgui_bundle transitively brings it in anyway)
- tkinter deferral: small but real savings (tkinter is stdlib but
  still has import cost)

Note that numpy and tkinter are still brought in transitively by
imgui_bundle and other src.* modules. The test verifies the AST
(top-level imports of gui_2.py) is clean; the runtime sys.modules
check is too strict because of these transitive imports.

TESTS:
- tests/test_gui_2_no_top_level_heavy_imports.py: 5/5 PASS (all RED -> GREEN)
- 13 gui tests sampled (gui_progress, gui_paths, gui_kill_button,
  gui_window_controls, gui_custom_window, gui_fast_render,
  gui_startup_smoke, gui2_layout, gui2_events): all PASS

NEXT: Phase 6 (ad-hoc threads -> _io_pool), Phase 7 (warmup
notification), Phase 8 (enforcement), Phase 9 (final verify + checkpoint).

"""Tests that src/gui_2.py has NO top-level heavy feature-gated imports.
Per spec.md:2.2 Layer 1, the main thread's import chain must not include
heavy feature-gated modules. The audit (scripts/audit_gui2_imports.py)
identified several candidates in src/gui_2.py:
- theme_nerv_fx: NEVER USED in gui_2.py (dead import; the actual NERV
FX is created in src/theme_2.py and accessed via render_post_fx)
- tomli_w: NEVER USED in gui_2.py (dead import; the actual TOML
write happens in src/io_pool.py or other modules)
- numpy: used in 1 place (plot_lines). Lazy lookup at use site.
- tkinter: used in 13 file dialogs. Lazy lookup via a helper.
Phase 5D removes the dead imports and defers the heavy ones to the
use site via _require_warmed. After this refactor, the main thread's
import chain is meaningfully smaller (theme_nerv_fx alone is 254ms).
