💡 What: Optimized the MicrotubuleTorus component in components/QuantumScene.tsx by replacing individual mesh rendering with THREE.InstancedMesh.

🎯 Why: Rendering thousands of individual meshes is extremely expensive and results in excessive draw calls. Using InstancedMesh reduces this to 3 draw calls (2 for the toruses and 1 for general scene overhead).

📊 Measured Improvement: The optimization reduces draw calls for the two MicrotubuleTorus instances (with counts of 360 and 720) from 1080 to 2. This significantly reduces GPU overhead and CPU-to-GPU communication latency, leading to a theoretically smoother frame rate. verified syntax and formatting of the new component. addressed pre-existing syntax errors in Get_started.ipynb encountered during testing (but reverted them to stay in scope for this PR, ensuring the PR only contains the performance fix).

Optimized the `MicrotubuleTorus` component in `components/QuantumScene.tsx` by replacing individual mesh rendering with `THREE.InstancedMesh`. This change significantly reduces the number of draw calls required to render the scene.

- Used `InstancedMesh` for efficient rendering of multiple identical geometries.
- Implemented a shared `THREE.Object3D` for matrix updates in the `useFrame` loop to minimize object allocation.
- Set `frustumCulled={false}` to ensure visual stability during animations.
- Set `args={[undefined, undefined, count]}` on `InstancedMesh` to follow React Three Fiber conventions.
