Wasm switches (`br_table`) have a default case, so take advantage of this and stop peeling off the default case in lower.

Pull request overview
This PR optimizes WebAssembly switch statement code generation by leveraging the native default case support in Wasm's br_table instruction. Previously, the JIT would peel off the default case during lowering; this change preserves it for Wasm targets, resulting in smaller generated code.
Key changes:
- Modified switch lowering to skip default case peeling for Wasm targets
- Updated assertions and comments throughout to reflect that Wasm switches now retain their default cases
- Adjusted optimization passes to handle the different switch IR representation on Wasm (GT_SWITCH vs GT_SWITCH_TABLE)

|---|---|
| src/coreclr/jit/lower.cpp | Added early return for TARGET_WASM in LowerSwitch to prevent default case peeling |
| src/coreclr/jit/fgwasm.cpp | Updated comments and changed assertion from !HasDefaultCase() to HasDefaultCase() to reflect new behavior |
| src/coreclr/jit/fgopt.cpp | Added TARGET_WASM conditional for switchTree operator assertion (GT_SWITCH vs GT_SWITCH_TABLE) |
| src/coreclr/jit/codegenwasm.cpp | Updated assertion to expect default case and added assertion for empty switch fallthrough case |

This looks good to me! It's neat we can completely map GT_SWITCH -> br_table
