For regular grids, all chunks have the same codec_shape, so we can
build the ArraySpec once and reuse it for every chunk — avoiding the
per-chunk ChunkGrid.getitem + ArraySpec construction overhead.

Adds _get_default_chunk_spec() and uses it in _get_selection and
_set_selection. Saves ~5ms per 1000 chunks.

Footnotes

  1. 6 benchmarks were skipped, so the baseline results were used instead. If they were deleted from the codebase, click here and archive them to remove them from the performance reports.

  2. No successful run was found on main (c4730be) during the generation of this report, so 029c376 was used instead as the comparison base. There might be some changes unrelated to this pull request in this report.
