MetadataFile now declares IDisposable using the canonical pattern
(public non-virtual Dispose() + protected virtual Dispose(bool)).
PEFile and WebCilFile become sealed and override Dispose(bool) to
release the PEReader and MemoryMappedViewAccessor they own;
ResourcesFile is also sealed. PortableDebugInfoProvider disposes the
MetadataReaderProvider it owns. LoadedAssembly implements IDisposable
and disposes both the loaded MetadataFile and the debug-info provider.
AssemblyList.Unload / Clear / ReloadAssembly / HotReplaceAssembly now
dispose the LoadedAssembly instances they evict, fixing a resource leak
where every "Reload Assembly" held the previous PEReader (and the
underlying file handle / memory-mapped view) alive until GC eventually
finalized it.
The disposal contract terminates at the AssemblyList tier: downstream
holders of MetadataFile (MetadataModule, DecompilerTypeSystem,
AssemblyListSnapshot, ...) hold borrowed references rather than owned
ones, so making the base IDisposable does not cascade into CA1001 /
CA2213 warnings elsewhere.
