Use wasm as a fallback for @tailwindcss/oxide (#20383)

Right now, we use Rust for `@tailwindcss/oxide` which has 2
responsibilities:

1. Traverse the file system and figure out which files need to be
scanned based on auto source detection and `@source` directives.
2. Given those files, extract possible Tailwind CSS classes which we
call candidates.

Since this is using native code, we use napi-rs to get native `.node`
files on a per platform / arch basis.

So far so good, however, if you are on an OS that doesn't have a
prebuilt binary, you will receive an error that might look like this:

```
Error: Cannot find native binding. npm has a bug related to optional dependencies (https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/4828). Please try `npm i` again after removing both package-lock.json and node_modules directory.

```

This means that we have to add support for these platforms, and there
are some open PRs related to this, which could be closed by this PR:

- #20327
- #20276
- #20201

Today we already have support for the big platforms out there:

- Windows arm64
- Windows x64
- macOS arm64
- macOS x64

But then it starts to get a bit out of hand once we start looking at
Linux based versions:

- Android arm eabi
- Android arm64
- Linux arm64 gnu
- Linux arm64 gnueabihf
- Linux arm64 musl
- Linux x64 gnu
- Linux x64 musl
- freebsd x64

... and then we have the pending list from the 3 PRs linked above.
Adding support for all of these is not the end of the world, but it gets
complex if we need to keep supporting more and more. Right now we rely
on a bunch of non-default napi-rs setup in CI just to support these
other platforms.

This PR solves that by using the `wasm32-wasi` build as a universal
fallback. The napi-rs generated loader already knows how to fall back to
`@tailwindcss/oxide-wasm32-wasi`, but that package declared `"cpu":
["wasm32"]`, so npm/pnpm never installed it on real hardware. Removing
that restriction means the package is installed everywhere, and the
loader picks it up whenever no native binding exists.

This PR also fixes a `UVWASI_EACCES` crash on sandboxed platforms
(OpenHarmony, Android): the generated wasm loader preopens `/`, which
those sandboxes deny, so the fallback failed to load on exactly the
platforms that need it (see [this
comment](https://github.com/tailwindlabs/tailwindcss/pull/20276#issuecomment-4950167198)).
We patch `@napi-rs/cli`'s codegen templates via `pnpm patch` to retry
with narrower preopens (`/` → cwd → none). On such platforms, scanning
is limited to files under the current working directory.

## Test plan

Added two integration tests:

1. Trick pnpm (via `supportedArchitectures`) into installing for a
platform we explicitly don't support, and assert `@tailwindcss/oxide`
loads the wasm binding and scans files from disk.
2. Simulate a sandbox that denies preopening `/`, and assert the wasm
binding still loads and scans.
