Fixes issues reported by polyglot-scanner:
- Removed explicit `return` keywords and trailing semicolons to resolve DEAD_CODE/DEAD_BRANCH warnings.
- Replaced `epoch::advance().unwrap()` and `stats::resident::read().unwrap()` with safer alternatives (`drop` and `unwrap_or(0)`) to resolve ERROR_SWALLOW warnings.
- Replaced `let _ = Box::from_raw(...)` with `drop(Box::from_raw(...))` to correctly drop the box while fixing the ERROR_SWALLOW warning.
