v1.0.6 - Performance Optimization Release

What's Changed

Consolidated Event Listeners:
- Combined redundant event listeners (onInstalled and onStartup) to streamline initialization and reduce overhead.
Optimized Badge Update Logic:
- Replaced setInterval with chrome.alarms API for periodic checks, minimizing CPU usage.
- Refined setTimeout usage in updateBadgeText to ensure smooth countdown updates without excessive resource consumption.
Debounced Storage Operations:
- Added a debounce function to limit chrome.storage updates, reducing the frequency of writes and improving efficiency during rapid changes.
Lazy-Loaded Dark Mode Toggle:
- Loaded dark mode toggle functionality only when accessed, enhancing load performance by deferring initialization until needed.
Improved Selector Usage in clickRefreshButton:
- Reordered selectors in clickRefreshButton based on usage frequency, optimizing DOM queries for faster button detection in complex UIs.
Minified and Simplified CSS:
- Reduced CSS size in popup.html, decreasing load time and improving rendering speed.
Reduced Logging in Production:
- Limited console logging in production code paths, decreasing the resource impact of log generation during high-frequency operations.

These changes provide a faster, more resource-efficient experience, especially in scenarios with frequent refresh intervals.
