refactor(host): three more Windows unsafe fns that had no caller contract

Continues the crate-by-crate `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` work. Same finding as
pf-frame: the useful move is often deleting the `unsafe fn` marker, not decorating
the body.

`install_steam_audio_pair` (no arguments) and `try_install_steam_audio(&str)` are now
safe fns. The call sites had already worked this out — both carried a SAFETY comment
opening "`install_steam_audio_pair` is `unsafe` only because it `LoadLibraryExW`s
`newdev.dll`", i.e. the obligation was never the caller's. Making them safe deletes
14 lines of that prose from two call sites and moves the real reasoning next to the
`LoadLibraryExW`/`transmute`/call chain it actually describes. wasapi_mic.rs: 8 -> 0.

`make_job` (no arguments, and it wraps its handle in an `OwnedHandle` before the
first fallible step) and `open_log_handle(&Path)` are safe fns too. The latter
returns a raw `HANDLE`, but that is an ownership obligation, not a safety one —
nothing a caller does with it can cause UB, and it is inherited by the child and
closed there. service.rs: 19 -> 14.

`spawn_host` keeps `unsafe fn`: it takes a raw `HANDLE`, and an invalid one is UB.
That is a contract worth stating, so it keeps the marker.

Windows-only note: `LoadLibraryExW` here already passes
`LOAD_LIBRARY_SEARCH_SYSTEM32`, so the newdev.dll load cannot pick up a planted DLL
from the working directory — now recorded in the SAFETY note rather than left
implicit.

Verified on Windows .47: punktfunk-host clean at EXITCODE=0 — zero errors, zero
unused-unsafe. Crate's own files now 29 E0133 (interactive.rs 15, service.rs 14),
down from 42.
