Fix wasm-bindgen-test compatibility with doctests in Node.js

This commit addresses crashes when running wasm-bindgen-test in doctests,
which execute in Node.js environments with specific limitations.

Problem:
When running doctests with wasm-bindgen-test, async code using spawn_local()
would crash with "not a shared typed array" error. This occurred because:
1. Doctests run in Node.js, not browsers
2. Node.js may not have SharedArrayBuffer enabled by default
3. Even with atomics compiled in, the runtime memory might not be shared

Solution:
1. SharedArrayBuffer detection: Before using Atomics.waitAsync(), we now
   check if the memory buffer is actually a SharedArrayBuffer. If not,
   we gracefully fall back to the polyfill implementation.

2. Worker availability handling: In Node.js doctests, Worker may not be
   available or may behave differently. The polyfill now:
   - Checks for Worker constructor availability before attempting to use it
   - Falls back to setTimeout-based polling when Worker is unavailable
   - Implements exponential backoff (1ms → 2ms → 4ms... up to 100ms)
   - Polls up to 10 times before timing out

Design decisions:
- The SharedArrayBuffer check uses inline JS to properly detect the type,
  as this can't be reliably done from Rust alone
- The polling fallback provides basic async behavior without Worker deps,
  making doctests functional even in restricted environments
- The implementation prioritizes compatibility over performance in fallback
  scenarios, as doctests are primarily for documentation/testing

This enables wasm-bindgen-test to work reliably in doctest environments
while maintaining full functionality in production browser contexts.
