G5: F08 — defer asyncio.Queue and asyncio.Lock construction

Why: On Python 3.9/3.10, asyncio.Queue() and asyncio.Lock() bind to
the running event loop at construction time. If the SDK is instantiated
from a synchronous factory before an event loop exists, both primitives
raise "RuntimeError: ... is bound to a different event loop" on first
use. Fix: EventDispatcher defers Queue creation to start(), with a
guard in dispatch() that raises RuntimeError if called before start().
CommandHandlerBase defers Lock creation via a lazy @property accessor.
Both document the contract change in class docstrings.
