feat(dataset): close-on-swap, AddInitial, LoadedAt, Loaded

- reload() Closes replaced value if it implements io.Closer
  (geoip readers leak mmap/file handles on hot-swap without this)
- AddInitial pre-populates a view so Value() is non-nil before first
  Load — enables async-load startup paths
- View.LoadedAt() and Set.Loaded() expose load state for health checks
