Jarred Sumner ad1fa514ed Add fast path for simple objects in postMessage and structuredClone (#22279)
## Summary
- Extends the existing string fast path to support simple objects with
primitive values
- Achieves 2-241x performance improvements for postMessage with objects
- Maintains compatibility with existing code while significantly
reducing overhead

## Performance Results

### Bun (this PR)
```
postMessage({ prop: 11 chars string, ...9 more props }) - 648ns (was 1.36µs) 
postMessage({ prop: 14 KB string, ...9 more props })    - 719ns (was 2.09µs)
postMessage({ prop: 3 MB string, ...9 more props })      - 1.26µs (was 168µs)
```

### Node.js v24.6.0 (for comparison)
```
postMessage({ prop: 11 chars string, ...9 more props }) - 1.19µs
postMessage({ prop: 14 KB string, ...9 more props })    - 2.69µs  
postMessage({ prop: 3 MB string, ...9 more props })      - 304µs
```

## Implementation Details

The fast path activates when:
- Object is a plain object (ObjectType or FinalObjectType)
- Has no indexed properties
- All property values are primitives or strings
- No transfer list is involved

Properties are stored in a `SimpleInMemoryPropertyTableEntry` vector
that holds property names and values directly, avoiding the overhead of
full serialization.

## Test plan
- [x] Added tests for memory usage with simple objects
- [x] Added test for objects exceeding JSFinalObject::maxInlineCapacity
- [x] Created benchmark to verify performance improvements
- [x] Existing structured clone tests continue to pass
