Replace FastCost struct construction with direct simulator feeding for ~90% of instructions (fast path). This avoids heap allocation and reduces memory copying, matching the approach from PR jarchain#750. Changes: - Use feed_gas_direct() instead of fast_cost_from_raw() + sim.feed(&fc) - Fall back to slow path only for branches/overlaps/moves - All 133 tests pass

Fast path for ~90% of instructions (loads, stores, ALU, immediates, terminators) via GasSimulator::feed_direct(), which takes register indices directly and avoids constructing a FastCost struct. Only instructions requiring context-dependent cost computation (ecalli, load_imm_jump, conditional branches 181..=255, and unrecognised opcodes) fall back to fast_cost_from_raw() + feed(). Closes jarchain#812
