docs: improve SEA config comments with performance details and snapshot rationale

- Document useCodeCache provides ~13% faster startup (~22ms improvement)
- Explain why useSnapshot is incompatible with socket-cli
- socket-cli accesses ~70 env vars at module load time (HOME, SOCKET_CLI_API_TOKEN, etc.)
- Snapshots would freeze build-time env values, breaking runtime configuration
- Note that code cache + bundling provides ~25-30% startup improvement without restrictions

This clarifies the performance strategy and why snapshots can't be used.
