💡 What: replaced width animation with transform: scaleX() for the scroll progress bar in styles.css and script.js.
🎯 Why: animating layout-inducing properties like width on scroll causes continuous layout thrashing, severely degrading rendering performance. using transform: scaleX() offloads the work to the gpu (compositing layer).
📊 Impact: expected performance improvement is significant reduction in layout calculations per frame during scrolling, leading to a much smoother user experience, especially on mobile devices.
🔬 Measurement: verify by profiling rendering performance while scrolling; layout tasks should be minimal or eliminated for the progress bar updates.

replaced `width` animation with `transform: scaleX()` and `transform-origin: left` in `styles.css` for `.scroll-progress`.
updated `script.js` to modify `transform: scaleX()` instead of `width` in `ScrollProgress.update()` and `ScrollProgress.updateModal()`.
