Subject: [PATCH] chore: remove unused regex patterns and update optimization
 tracking

- Remove deprecated ANSI_ESCAPE_PATTERN and WHITESPACE_PATTERN from
  respawn-controller.ts (were marked as unused)
- Update optimization-todos.md with progress on completed items:
  - Item 1: BufferAccumulator implemented
  - Item 2: lastIndex resets already in place
  - Item 3: Auto-trim via BufferAccumulator
  - Item 9: Unused regex patterns removed
  - Item 13: Files not dead code (used by CLI)
