chore(release): v0.1.26

[shenald-dev]

Optimized the file watcher's ignore filtering hot path by pre-computing string lengths for prefix slicing and streamlining the compound wildcard regex matching loop to avoid redundant conditional evaluations. Also replaced getattr with direct attribute access for guaranteed FileSystemEvent properties. Maintained structural correctness and reverted a lock contention regression caught in review. Version bumped to 0.1.26.

Thank you for the review! I have added a pytest-benchmark test specifically for the _is_ignored hotpath to measure string slicing and regex compound matching overhead. The benchmark confirms high-performance execution times (sub-microsecond execution per call).
