Major Timer API improvements:
- Add `stopped` flag to Timer C++ class for proper state management
- Add `start()` method to restart stopped timers (preserves callback)
- Add `stop()` method that removes from engine but preserves callback
- Make `active` property read-write (True=start/resume, False=pause)
- Add `start=True` init parameter to create timers in stopped state
- Add `mcrfpy.timers` module-level collection (tuple of active timers)
- One-shot timers now set stopped=true instead of clearing callback
- Remove deprecated `setTimer()` and `delTimer()` module functions
Timer callbacks now receive (timer, runtime) instead of just (runtime).
Updated all tests to use new Timer API and callback signature.

Implements Python-controlled simulation advancement for headless mode:
- Add mcrfpy.step(dt) to advance simulation by dt seconds
- step(None) advances to next scheduled event (timer/animation)
- Timers use simulation_time in headless mode for deterministic behavior
- automation.screenshot() now renders synchronously in headless mode
(captures current state, not previous frame)
This enables LLM agent orchestration (#156) by allowing:
- Set perspective, take screenshot, query LLM - all synchronous
- Deterministic simulation control without frame timing issues
- Event-driven advancement with step(None)
