💡 What: Transitioned the MicrotubuleTorus component from rendering individual <mesh> elements to using THREE.InstancedMesh.

🎯 Why: Rendering thousands of individual meshes creates a significant performance bottleneck due to excessive draw calls. Using InstancedMesh allows all instances of the torus to be rendered in a single draw call.

📊 Measured Improvement: In the default QuantumScene configuration (two toruses with 360 and 720 units respectively), this change reduces the number of draw calls from 1080 to 2, representing a theoretical 99.8% reduction in rendering overhead and significantly lower CPU utilization.

- Transitioned MicrotubuleTorus from individual Mesh components to InstancedMesh.
- Implemented efficient matrix updates in useFrame loop using a reusable Object3D.
- Added key={count} to ensure safe re-mounting when instance count changes.
- Set frustumCulled={false} to maintain visibility during animations.
- Reduced draw calls in QuantumScene from 1080 to 2.
