Patryk Gensch ba9db82a4c worker: optional PyGhidra back-end for Ghidra 11.4+/12.x (no Jython)
The .py extractor runs fine under PyGhidra in the GUI; only `analyzeHeadless`
doesn't init PyGhidra. Add an env-gated CPython path so modern Ghidra works headless:

- ghidra.run_extractor_pyghidra(): runs the same GhidraScript via pyghidra.run_script
  (boots Ghidra in-process, imports+analyses, getScriptArgs()=[out_path]); run_extractor
  dispatches to it when AMS_USE_PYGHIDRA is set. No script changes needed.
- worker image installs pyghidra + sets GHIDRA_INSTALL_DIR; compose exposes
  AMS_USE_PYGHIDRA (default off). Jython path stays the default and untouched.
- README documents both variants (Jython <=11.3.x vs PyGhidra 11.4+/12.x).
- test: AMS_USE_PYGHIDRA routes to the PyGhidra back-end (clear error if pkg missing).

35/35 tests pass.

"""Drive Ghidra to run the engine-surface extractor on a DLL.
This is the heavy worker step: it imports the binary into a throwaway Ghidra
project, auto-analyses it, then runs `ghidra_scripts/extract_engine_surface.py`
to write the snapshot JSON to a path we pick.
Two back-ends, picked by the `AMS_USE_PYGHIDRA` env var:
* default — `analyzeHeadless` runs the script as a post-script via Ghidra's bundled
**Jython**. Works on Ghidra <= 11.3.x; on 11.4+/12.x Jython is gone and the script
silently doesn't run ("Ghidra was not started with PyGhidra").
* `AMS_USE_PYGHIDRA=1` — run the same script through **PyGhidra** (CPython) via
`pyghidra.run_script`, so modern Ghidra (11.4+/12.x) works. Needs `pip install pyghidra`
and Ghidra's dir in `$GHIDRA_INSTALL_DIR` (falls back to `$GHIDRA_HOME`).
analyzeHeadless resolution order: $GHIDRA_HEADLESS, $GHIDRA_HOME/support/analyzeHeadless,
then `analyzeHeadless` on PATH.
