Eliminate reflection overhead and optimize string operations

[Copilot]

Performance profiling revealed critical bottlenecks in reflection-heavy aggregation operations and string manipulation.

Changes

• Compiled property accessors: Replaced repeated PropertyInfo.GetValue() calls with cached compiled expression trees. Eliminates 40+ reflection invocations per aggregation operation.

private static readonly ConcurrentDictionary<PropertyInfo, Func<object, object>> _propertyAccessorCache = new();

private static Func<object, object> GetPropertyAccessor(PropertyInfo property)
{
    return _propertyAccessorCache.GetOrAdd(property, prop =>
    {
        var parameter = Expression.Parameter(typeof(object), "obj");
        var cast = Expression.Convert(parameter, prop.DeclaringType!);
        var propertyAccess = Expression.Property(cast, prop);
        var convertToObject = Expression.Convert(propertyAccess, typeof(object));
        return Expression.Lambda<Func<object, object>>(convertToObject, parameter).Compile();
    });
}

• Property metadata caching: Memoized Type.GetProperties() results in PropertyExtractor using ConcurrentDictionary<(Type, bool), PropertyInfo[]>.

• Column letter generation: Replaced O(n²) string concatenation with char array and backward fill pattern.

• Conditional formatting lookup: Dictionary-based property index lookup instead of O(n×m) Array.FindIndex in loop.

• Formatter selection: Direct max-priority scan replaced OrderByDescending().FirstOrDefault() LINQ chain.

All caches use ConcurrentDictionary for thread-safe concurrent access patterns.
