Resolve Worker.Tests-003..007 code-review findings

Worker.Tests-003: removed the wall-clock `Elapsed < 2s` assertion from
InvokeAsync_WakesIdlePumpForQueuedCommand; the awaited completion against a
30s idle period already proves the wake event drove dispatch.

Worker.Tests-004: MxAccessStaSession.Dispose now joins the alarm poll task
after cancelling the CTS (consistent with ShutdownGracefullyAsync), and
Dispose_StopsAlarmPollLoop asserts deterministically instead of via Task.Delay.

Worker.Tests-005: undisposed MemoryStream instances across the frame-protocol
and pipe-session tests are now `using` declarations.

Worker.Tests-006: Dispose_StopsAlarmPollLoop now constructs MxAccessStaSession
with `using` so a failed assertion cannot leak the STA poll loop.

Worker.Tests-007: docs/WorkerFrameProtocol.md verification section corrected
to target MxGateway.Worker.Tests / MxGateway.Worker with -p:Platform=x86.
