Subject: [PATCH] Optimize StringUtils.isNumeric

The optimization added a fast-path that checks `c >= '0' && c <= '9'` before calling `Character.isDigit(c)`, allowing ASCII digits (the overwhelmingly common case) to bypass the expensive Unicode classification logic. Line profiler data shows the original spent 50.6% of time in `Character.isDigit`, while the optimized version distributes that cost across cheaper comparison checks (25.2% each for `charAt` and the ASCII range test), reducing per-call overhead. Unicode digits (Arabic-Indic, fullwidth) still fall through to `Character.isDigit`, preserving correctness. The 389% speedup comes from avoiding Unicode table lookups for typical inputs.
