…zation * Extract `octList` and `hexList` in `GNSSCodes.swift` to `private static let` properties to eliminate repeated heap allocations. * Revert manual branchless bitwise logic in `GPS.swift` to standard conditional ternaries, allowing LLVM CMOV/CSEL compiler optimizations to handle branching performantly without sacrificing code readability. * Document learnings in `.jules/bolt.md`.

👋 Jules, reporting for duty! I'm here to lend a hand with this pull request. When you start a review, I'll add a 👀 emoji to each comment to let you know I've read it. I'll focus on feedback directed at me and will do my best to stay out of conversations between you and other bots or reviewers to keep the noise down. I'll push a commit with your requested changes shortly after. Please note there might be a delay between these steps, but rest assured I'm on the job! For more direct control, you can switch me to Reactive Mode. When this mode is on, I will only act on comments where you specifically mention me with New to Jules? Learn more at jules.google/docs.

💡 What: Extracted
octListandhexListlocally instantiated array variables insideoct2bin/hex2binhelper functions intoprivate static letclass properties. Additionally, reverted an unreadable manual branchless bitwise math hack ingenerateL2Cback to standard conditional ternaries.🎯 Why: Instantiating multidimensional arrays inside frequently called generator loops causes massive, repeated heap allocations and garbage collection thrashing in Swift. Furthermore, manual bitwise hacks for branch prediction are unnecessary since modern Swift compilers (LLVM) natively compile simple ternary operators into branchless
CMOV/CSELCPU instructions, delivering the same performance with vastly better readability.📊 Impact: Reduces memory allocation overhead (heap pressure) to almost zero in the
oct2bin/hex2binpaths. Improves code maintainability without performance loss in PRN sequence generation loops.🔬 Measurement: Verify via memory profiling during GNSS code generation (heap allocations will be noticeably reduced for L1CO initialization). Verify LFSR output correctness through CI test suite runs.
