Just did a little bit of research, and won't try to explain what VCHIQ is and will instead LINK to it instead. We have never run into this issue, so it sounds like it is probably a bad VideoCore portion of your Zero's processor, since you seem to have tried all of our normal plans of attack.
You may just have to end up buying a new Zero, though I'd first try booting, ssh-ing in, killing emulationstation and the display drivers with `sudo killall emulationstation` and `sudo systemctl stop fbcpOld.service`. Then try running a full system update/upgrade with `sudo apt update; sudo apt upgrade`. Reboot and give try again, but most people that have this kind of issue (freezing) usually solve it with a replacement Pi Zero.
