refactor: Remove deprecated instruction logging feature

- Eliminated the kLogInstructions flag and associated logging functionality, as the DisassemblyViewer is now always active and utilizes a more efficient sparse address-map recording method.
- Updated relevant code across multiple files to reflect the removal of the deprecated feature, ensuring cleaner and more maintainable code.
- Adjusted UI elements and serialization methods to remove references to the obsolete logging feature, streamlining the user experience.
