Modernize Crypt of Sokoban demo game and fix timer segfault

Game script updates (src/scripts/):
- Migrate Sound/Music API: createSoundBuffer() -> Sound() objects
- Migrate Scene API: sceneUI("name") -> scene.children
- Migrate Timer API: setTimer/delTimer -> Timer objects with stop()
- Fix callback signatures: (x,y,btn,event) -> (pos,btn,action) with Vector
- Fix grid_size unpacking: now returns Vector, use .x/.y with int()

Segfault fix (src/PyTimer.cpp):
- Remove direct map erase in PyTimer::stop() that caused iterator
  invalidation when timer.stop() was called from within a callback
- Now just marks timer as stopped; testTimers() handles safe removal

The game now starts and runs without crashes.
