v1.1.0 - Performance Profiling & Automation Suite

🚀 What's New

This release introduces a dedicated benchmarking subsystem and build automation tools to verify SerDeLite's performance on modern hardware. While the core serialization logic remains stable, the project structure has been enhanced to support professional-grade profiling.

📊 Verified Performance Metrics

Benchmarks conducted on Intel® Core™ i7-11800H @ 2.30GHz (MSI High-Performance Mode):

• Simple Numeric: 17.63 Million objects/sec (56.7 ns/obj)
• Physics Data (Vec3): 14.61 Million objects/sec (68.4 ns/obj)
• Nested Player Profile: 4.05 Million objects/sec (246.5 ns/obj)
• Complex World State: 1.43 Million objects/sec (699.3 ns/obj)

🛠️ Key Improvements

• New Benchmarking Suite: Added 4 modular test cases in tests/benchmarks/ covering various data complexities.
• Build Automation: Added benchmark_win.bat for one-click compilation and execution on Windows.
• Artifact Management: Integrated a root /build directory to keep source folders clean of executables.
• Technical Docs: Added comprehensive README.md within the benchmarks folder detailing methodology and cache optimization strategies.
