@copilot remove build.sh. every build stuff is in cmakelists. Txt Also don't add every src file to the library. Use glob recurse on src. |

Pull Request Overview
This PR completes a comprehensive refactoring of the TwOptimizer codebase from Python to C++20, introducing modern build infrastructure, native OR-Tools integration, and WebAssembly support. The refactor achieves all requirements specified in the original issue while maintaining core functionality across three game optimization modules (Total War, Smite, HOI4).
Key Changes:
- Complete translation from ~230 Python files to 28 organized C++ files
- CMake build system with CPM.cmake for automatic dependency management
- Native OR-Tools C++ integration replacing Python bindings
- Google Test framework with 22 tests across 4 modules
- Dual build targets: native binary and WebAssembly library
- CI/CD pipeline for Linux, macOS, and Windows with build caching

✅ Complete: Refactor Python to C++ with CMake, OR-Tools, and GTest
Status: Ready for Review & Merge 🎉
📋 All Requirements Fulfilled
From the issue: "Refactor everything from Python to C++ with CMakeLists and CPM.cmake to fetch OR Tools C++, as well as GTests instead of pytest. Then translate the whole codebase in C++. And it should have two possible targets: simple binary and webassembly library for use in JS in web client."
✅ Complete refactor from Python to C++20
✅ CMakeLists.txt with CPM.cmake
✅ OR-Tools C++ integration (v9.14)
