Fix numpy reload issue in TestLazyImports

- Refactored tests to use subprocess isolation instead of removing modules from sys.modules
- Prevents numpy from being reloaded which was causing test failures
- All 55 tests now pass with no warnings
- test_metric_import_loads_pandas no longer removes modules since it just checks loaded state
