fix(editor): NPC ghost preview, scale control, frame sync for M2 rendering

- Ghost preview now shows in NPC mode (follows cursor with creature model)
- Added scale field to CreatureSpawn (default 1.0, slider 0.5-10x)
- NPC instances render at their configured scale
- Scale included in JSON save format
- M2Renderer::update() now runs AFTER beginFrame() so getCurrentFrame()
  returns the correct frame index — fixes instance SSBO mismatch that
  caused draws=0 despite loaded models
