**`for-in` no longer allocates a heap string and a hash entry for every own
name at every prototype level** (#9823).

`js_for_in_keys_value` kept a `HashSet<String>` of every own name — enumerable
or not — at every level of the prototype chain, so that a name owned closer to
the receiver hides the same name further along it (ECMA-262 14.7.5, 12.6.4-2).
It built that set unconditionally, which meant materialising a second key array
per level (all own names, on top of the enumerable ones) and turning every name
at every level into an owned `String` purely so it could be hashed.

That set can only filter a level at or below the first prototype, and a level
that contributes no enumerable keys of its own never consults it. It is now
built on demand — at the moment a prototype level actually has an enumerable
key to filter — from exactly the levels already walked, so the emitted key
sequence is unchanged.

On the compiled claude-code TUI, one 400-character reply: **159,947 `String`
allocations and 159,947 hash inserts become zero**, and the key arrays
materialised per call halve from 4.00 to 2.00. Across 17,281 `for-in` loops in
that reply, **no key was emitted from a prototype level at all**, so the set
that cost all of that filtered nothing. The strings totalled 1.91 MB, which is
why an allocation-byte ranking never surfaced this: the cost was 160,000
mallocs, memcpys, hashes and frees, not the bytes they held. The collection
schedule is unchanged (41 vs 43 copying minors, 46 vs 48 budgeted full-cycle
steps).

`PERRY_ENUM_DIAG=<path>` reports the counters above. `PERRY_FORIN_LAZY_SHADOW=0`
restores the eager set.

**The buffer-registry probe stops answering "maybe" to three quarters of the
addresses it is asked about** (#9828).

`is_registered_buffer` guards its three registries with
`BUFFER_LIKE_ADDR_WINDOW`, a process-global min/max span, and the 98.0 %
rejection rate in its doc comment is measured on `claude-code --help` — a run
that registers **10** buffers. A streaming turn registers **213**, scattered
across a **527 MB** span, so `[lo, hi]` covers half a gigabyte of ordinary heap
and stops discriminating: on one 400-character reply, 34.6 million probes, of
which the window admits **73.63 %** to the out-of-line lookup, and **99.79 % of
those find nothing**.

The probe now consults `RegistryAddrFilter` behind the window — the set filter
added after #9272 for exactly this failure, where a registry's entries are
ordinary heap objects interleaved with everything else. Rejection goes from
26.37 % to **96.46 %**, removing **24.25 million out-of-line calls per reply**,
each of which cost a thread-local resolution and a hash. True positives are
unchanged.

The saturation question that structure demands was answered before adopting it:
`RegistryAddrFilter` accrues bits per admission and never clears them, so a
high-churn set would degrade it into the state #9807 documented for the
per-object layout filter. Buffers are the opposite case — probing is hot,
registration is rare — and 213 cumulative admissions against 1,024 bits gives a
10.0 % false-positive rate. `PERRY_BUFFER_DIAG` reports the occupancy, the
window bounds and the rejection rate so the question stays answerable.

In the profile, `is_registered_buffer_slow` falls from 169 to 25 leaf samples
(−85 %); its inline caller rises 96 to 123 as the filter's hashes move there,
so the pair falls 44 % overall. That is roughly half of the 3.19 % the profile
attributed to the slow path, and it is below the streaming rig's resolution, so
turn CPU is unchanged.

Label live_max as per-thread or aggregate it across threads.

BUFFER_REGISTRY is thread-local, but BUF_LIVE_MAX is process-global. Each registration reports only the current thread's registry length, so buffer_dump can under-report live buffers across runtime threads. Maintain a process-wide live count or label this field as a per-thread maximum.

In `@crates/perry-runtime/src/buffer/header.rs` around lines 466 - 468, Update the
buffer registration tracking around BUFFER_REGISTRY and buffer_note_registration
so the live maximum is consistent with the process-global BUF_LIVE_MAX:
aggregate live buffer counts across threads before reporting, or explicitly
rename/label the metric as per-thread throughout the hot-diagnostics output.
Preserve registration behavior while ensuring buffer_dump does not present a
thread-local value as a process-wide maximum.
