Class SerenityEditorSignalDispatcher

Editor-only entry point that lets an authoring window dispatch an EventDispatcherSignal through the live IEventDispatcherService while Play Mode is running — e.g. a "Fire Now" preview button on a settings builder.

Deliberately does not latch the resolved service. SignalEmitterComponent caches a successful lookup because it lives on a gameplay object that re-runs every frame for the lifetime of a single Play session. This class is the inverse: it is called from an editor window that survives Play Mode exit and domain reloads, so a service resolved during one Play session would be a dangling reference on the next one. Resolving fresh on every call trades a cheap repeated lookup for correctness across sessions.
