feat: implement Tier 1 aptos-framework natives (event, create_signer, transaction_context, aggregator_v2)

Implement ~30 native functions across 4 aptos-framework modules using
custom shim modules (full AptosFramework dep has too many compilation
failures for now).

- event: 2 no-op guest exports (fire-and-forget)
- create_signer: translator interception (load+insertvalue+store to
  handle address→signer wrapping without RV64 ABI mismatch)
- transaction_context: 9 natives with mixed translator interceptions
  (address-returning functions) + guest exports + 5 host bridges
- aggregator_v2: 9 pure guest exports with u64/u128 type dispatch

Also makes LLVM module/function verification non-fatal (skips modules
that fail) and adds catch_unwind around module translation to handle
panics from unsupported constructs gracefully.
