fix(core): avoid LED blinking on event loop restart

Setting the LED color is now set as part of the rendering process.

If a component doesn't set the LED, it will be automatically turned off.
This way, we don't need to turn it off at `Homescreen::drop()` - which
was causing blinking during event loop restarts.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit fixes a cosmetic bug where the RGB LED on the Trezor T3W1 would briefly blink or flicker when the device's user-interface event loop restarted (for example, when leaving the homescreen). The fix moves LED color control into the normal screen-drawing pipeline so the LED state is set consistently during rendering rather than being turned off when a screen object is destroyed. There is no indication this is a security vulnerability.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal quality/user-experience fix. If reviewing, verify that LED color is deterministic per rendered frame and that no component can leave the LED in an unintended state across event-loop restarts.

Security signals we found

03

No buffer, integer, or memory-management changes

04

Change is confined to LED state machine / rendering pipeline

05

Changelog entry describes only a visual fix for homescreen LED blinking
