Alex Rickabaugh 98c5afdb02 perf(forms): lazily instantiate signal form fields
Currently, Signal Forms eagerly instantiates all nodes in the form tree because `childrenMap` iterates over the `value` and creates a `FieldNode` for every property. This ensures validation side-effects are run early, but creates pure overhead for fields without validation logic unless explicitly accessed.

This commit makes `childrenMap` lazy by default, skipping materialization for children without schema logic. This is achieved by introducing `hasLogicRules()` and `anyChildHasLogic()` across the `LogicNode` hierarchy. Fields are now only instantiated when a direct read occurs via `getChild()` (which calls the new `ensureChildrenMap()`) or if their subtree requires eager evaluation due to existing validation rules.

Fixes #67212
