Replace pixel-push render loop with alpha-blended HBITMAP

- Implemented UpdateLayeredWindow for efficient cursor rendering
- Created HBITMAP once per cursor instead of recreating every frame
- Used premultiplied alpha for better performance
- Added proper resource cleanup
- Reduced CPU usage from one hot core to virtually zero
- Maintained low latency (≤1ms) for cursor updates
- Temporarily increased polling rate for smoother cursor movement (will be replaced with event-based updates)
