Ludovic MarieandClaude Opus 5.5 3380705af9 Game: start on CPUs without POPCNT again (Core 2), and check every build for it
Since #4160 (10-29) the game's allocator is mimalloc v3, from libmimalloc-sys
0.1.49. Built by MSVC, its mi_popcount is `__popcnt64`, which MSVC turns into
the POPCNT instruction whatever the target. mimalloc runs before main, so on a
Core 2 (no POPCNT) the Windows game died at once with 0xc000001d and no log
(#7264). v0.2.97 had no POPCNT at all; nightlies 2026-10-31 and 11-01 have 9.

third_party/libmimalloc-sys is the published crate with one change: on MSVC
x86/x64, mi_popcount takes mimalloc's portable count, as the GCC builds without
-mpopcnt already do. Only arena bitmaps count bits, never malloc's fast path.
[patch.crates-io] points at it until a release carries microsoft/mimalloc#1291.

tools/check_cpu_baseline.py disassembles the Windows and Linux programs in the
game build and fails on any POPCNT or LZCNT: it flags 2026-11-01's
horizon-client.exe and passes v0.2.97's and the Linux builds.

Fixes #7264
