💡 What: Added prepareSearchIndex which loops over the data source (pdfDatabase) exactly once upon load to assign pre-computed search strings, parsed date values, and "isNew" statuses directly onto the objects.

🎯 Why: In script.js, renderPDFs() and createPDFCard() are executed repeatedly (e.g. on every single keystroke during searching). Without pre-calculation, the app re-instantiated Date objects, ran toLocaleDateString which invokes heavy globalization utilities, and mapped object properties through toLowerCase() potentially hundreds or thousands of times within milliseconds. This effectively blocked the main thread causing typing lag and slow renders.

📊 Impact: Reduces CPU bottlenecking during searches exponentially, decreasing lag directly correlated with database size. String concatenation, case transformation, and date localization have been moved out of an $O(N)$ high-frequency loop and into an $O(N)$ execution path that runs only once at load.

🔬 Measurement: Verify by typing in the search bar. Frame drops during rapid keystrokes will be notably minimized. No behavioral changes exist. Validated via Playwright DOM tests simulating search index state.

- Added `prepareSearchIndex` helper to pre-calculate `_searchStr`, `_isNew`, and `_formattedDate` for all PDF items using `Intl.DateTimeFormat`.
- Invoked `prepareSearchIndex` in `loadPDFDatabase` immediately after retrieving data from Firestore or Cache.
- Modified `renderPDFs` and `createPDFCard` to prioritize these pre-calculated properties over running regex/date-parsing during render loops, including safe fallback mechanisms.
