💡 what: updated the scroll progress bar to use transform: scaleX() instead of width for its progress animation.
🎯 why: animating width inside a high-frequency scroll loop causes expensive layout recalculations (layout thrashing) on the main thread.
📊 impact: shifts the work to the gpu, ensuring a measurably smoother scrolling experience and saving cpu cycles.
🔬 measurement: checked via playwright script running over index.html and logging dom style transforms; no failed unit tests (0 failures).

change `.scroll-progress` to animate via `transform: scaleX()` rather than `width`. this prevents layout thrashing on high-frequency scroll events by offloading the animation to the gpu.
