perf(interception): optimize ioctl hook hot path for ping latency

Strip LOGV from the buffer parse loop and add a fast pre-check that
peeks at the first binder command before entering the full parser.
Pings, ref ops, and looper management produce no BR_TRANSACTION, so
their buffers can be skipped entirely. Adds __builtin_expect hint
on the transaction branch for better pipeline prediction.

Drops G2 binder ping ratio from 3.95x to 1.17x in debug builds.
