Fix callback/timer GC: prevent premature destruction of Python callbacks

closes #251

Two related bugs where Python garbage collection destroyed callbacks
that were still needed by live C++ objects:

1. **Drawable callbacks (all 8 types)**: tp_dealloc unconditionally called
   click_unregister() etc., destroying callbacks even when the C++ object
   was still alive in a parent's children vector. Fixed by guarding with
   shared_ptr::use_count() <= 1 — only unregister when the Python wrapper
   is the last owner.

2. **Timer GC prevention**: Active timers now hold a Py_INCREF'd reference
   to their Python wrapper (Timer::py_wrapper), preventing GC while the
   timer is registered in the engine. Released on stop(), one-shot fire,
   or destruction. mcrfpy.Timer("name", cb, 100) now works without storing
   the return value.

Also includes audio synth demo UI fixes: button click handling (don't set
on_click on Caption children), single-column slider layout, improved
Animalese contrast.

+"""Regression test for issue #251: callbacks lost when Python wrapper is GC'd.
+
+When a UI element is added as a child of another element and its on_click
+callback is set, the callback must survive even after the Python wrapper
+object goes out of scope. The C++ UIDrawable still exists (owned by the
+parent's children vector), so its callbacks must not be destroyed.
+
+Previously, tp_dealloc unconditionally called click_unregister() on the
+C++ object, destroying the callback even when the C++ object had other
+shared_ptr owners.
