### Description

Currently for Update/Delete, we currently parse the update spec, query spec, etc into pgbsons on startup. Then reuse it per commands.

This has a few issues - for large document requests, this causes us to duplicate memory and persist it for the duration of the update and also transcode all up front - this is worse for multi-node when all we need to do is build yet another update spec and push it to the worker.

Instead, we now only cache pointers to the spec document; then when we need it we convert to pgbson only if necessary.

A consequence of this is that on a single node update, if we're doing a simple updateOne on _id then we would never serialize the updateSpec at all (for instance).

We also more eagerly free memory on the intermediate update specs.

#### AI description  (iteration 1)
#### PR Classification
Performance optimization for update parsing by refactoring BSON value handling.

#### PR Summary
This PR streamlines update parsing by replacing heavy BSON initialization routines with lightweight wrappers and converting update-related types from `pgbson*` to `bson_value_t*`, which reduces overhead and improves coordinator/worker compatibility.
- `src/commands/update.c`: Replaced multiple `PgbsonInitFromDocumentBsonValue` and similar calls with efficient wrappers like `CreateBsonValueFrom` and updated serialization (including back-compatible array filter and update document formats).
- `include/commands/update.h`: Updated update structure fields to use `bson_value_t*` instead of `pgbson*`, aligning interfaces with the new parsing approach.
- `src/update/bson_update.c` and `bson_update_operators_workflow.c`: Refactored update type determination and replace document logic to use new BSON value iterators and helper functions.
- Other modules (e.g. `commands/find_and_modify.c`, `commands/delete.c`, query operators, sharding) were updated to leverage the lighter-weight BSON representation and its associated helper routines.
