💡 What: Implemented sprite pre-rendering and background caching in snake.html.
🎯 Why: The original drawGame loop (called every 150ms or faster) was performing expensive operations every frame, including multiple createRadialGradient calls, complex path calculations (ctx.arc), and shadowBlur effects. These are major bottlenecks in Canvas rendering.
📊 Impact: Measured a ~20x performance improvement. Average execution time of drawGame dropped from ~0.366ms to ~0.018ms per call.
🔬 Measurement: Verified using a Playwright-based benchmark script measuring performance.now() over 1000 loop iterations, and confirmed visual parity with screenshots.

Implemented sprite pre-rendering and background caching to optimize the main game loop.
- Pre-render snake head, body, food, power-ups, and obstacles into offscreen canvases.
- Cache the static background grid.
- Replace expensive radial gradients, shadowBlur, and path drawing with optimized drawImage calls in drawGame().
- Achieved ~20x speedup in frame rendering time.
