runtime: gate __multiply / __divide on usage markers

Browse source 
Drop __mul_used from IrOp::Mul codegen and __div_used from IrOp::Div
/ IrOp::Mod codegen (modulo reuses the same routine). The linker
skips gen_multiply / gen_divide for programs that never emit the
markers, following the same pattern already used by __audio_used /
__ppu_update_used / __sprite_cycle_used.

The optimizer already rewrites multiplies and divides by constant
powers of two into shifts (and modulo by constant powers of two
into masks), so the markers only fire for genuinely runtime math.
A program like `examples/comparisons.ne` that never multiplies or
divides now reclaims ~56 bytes of PRG; programs that use only one
of the two reclaim the other's share.

Audio goldens flip for every example that uses audio. The .ne
sources are unchanged and the pixel goldens are byte-identical —
the audio stream differs only because removing the math routines
shifts the audio tick's absolute address in PRG by 56 bytes, which
changes which of its internal branches cross 6502 page boundaries
and therefore the per-frame cycle count of a single NMI by 1-5
clocks. Over 180 frames the accumulated drift shifts APU register
write timing enough to render a different digital sample stream
at the same logical wave shape. Expected consequence of ROM-layout
change under cycle-accurate emulation; documented path per
CLAUDE.md "Updating goldens".
