perf(malloc): throttle malloc_trim to 1 Hz in hot paths

malloc_trim(0) was called at the end of every update() and view(),
reaching 60-200 Hz during typical scrolling, resize, or animation.
Each call walks the glibc heap (10 us to several ms depending on
fragmentation) and could consume a substantial fraction of the frame
budget in worst cases.

Throttle trim() to once per second using a thread-local Instant,
preserving the existing API. RSS stays bounded (1 Hz is enough to
release collectable pages soon after) while per-frame cost becomes
a single thread-local check plus a duration comparison.

No call-site changes required; the three existing trim(0) invocations
in src/app/cosmic.rs (update, view multi-window, view single-window)
now fall under the throttle transparently.
