Gaming Status Bench v0.1.3

Gaming Status Bench v0.1.3

Third feedback-focused update. This release tightens CPU/USB solver behavior
and makes the JSON output easier to consume programmatically.

What Changed

• Added CPU topology guidance for visible logical processors, expected logical
  threads and active numproc boot caps.
• Added SMT / Hyper-Threading visibility checks.
• Added safer CPU solver state:
  • CPU SET 16 is only allowed for confirmed safe 8C/16T targets.
  • CPU RESTORE removes an active numproc cap when full thread visibility is
    wanted.
  • The report now explains that BIOS/UEFI controls SMT; CPU SET 16 cannot
    enable SMT/Hyper-Threading.
• Improved handling for high-thread CPUs such as Ryzen 9 16-core profiles where
  numproc 16 may be an intentional physical-core benchmark profile instead of
  an automatic must-fix.

USB Power Saving

• Added registry fallback checks for USB/HID device power-saving flags when the
  WMI MSPower_DeviceEnable backend is unavailable.
• Added/updated USB POWER SAVE OFF solver behavior for strict input-latency
  benchmark profiles.
• USB findings now report matched registry/WMI state more clearly.

JSON / Report Consistency

• Normalized FixSteps and FixCommands so JSON reports emit arrays even for
  zero or one item.
• This avoids mixed string/object/array shapes in downstream tools.

Trust / Packaging

• No installer.
• No EXE wrapper.
• Plain PowerShell scripts inside the ZIP.
• SHA256 checksum provided.
• Source-available under the PolyForm Strict License 1.0.0.
