Fix gen-class :main true to work on .NET 9+ (enable zero-C# executables)

gen-class :main true generates a static Main(string[]) method, but on
.NET 9+ two things were broken:

1. SetEntryPoint was only called behind #if NETFRAMEWORK. Added the
   NET9_0_OR_GREATER path via GenContext.SetEntryPoint which delegates
   to PersistedAssemblyBuilder.

2. The generated Main did not call RT.Init(). On .NET Framework, static
   constructors handled this implicitly. On .NET Core+, the runtime must
   be explicitly initialized. Main now calls RT.Init() before looking up
   and invoking -main.

3. If -main returns a Task (async entry point), Main now waits for it
   instead of discarding the result.

This enables AOT-compiled Clojure executables with no C# at all:
  (ns myapp (:gen-class :main true))
  (defn -main [& args] (println "Hello!"))

Compile with (compile 'myapp), run with: dotnet myapp.exe

Includes 2 NUnit tests verifying Main method generation and entry point
setting on .NET 9+. Adds net11.0 to TargetFrameworks for testing.
