Theme & Performance Enhancements

1. 🚀 75% Faster Startup
   • OpenAlgo now launches in ~2 seconds (previously 5–8 seconds).
   • Achieved by parallelizing all 11 database connections and concurrent service startups (execution engine, scheduler, WebSocket manager).
   • Delivers an instant, ready-to-trade experience every time you restart the server.
2. ⚡ Platform Speed & Latency Optimizations
   • Introduced Order Latency Dashboard v2 with detailed latency segmentation:
     • Platform Overhead
     • Broker API Time
     • Network RTT
   • Added broker-level latency tracking to the HTTPX client.
   • Improved in-memory caching for API keys and symbol data for quicker responses.
   • Average platform response time reduced by 40–60%.
3. 🎨 UI & Frontend Updates
   • socket.io now served from local file (no external CDN dependency).
   • Smart audio filtering — notifications now play only for order placement.
   • Fixed theme contrast issues, form alignments, and modal responsiveness across brokers.
