πŸ’‘ What: Wrapped PythonEditor and TurtleCanvas components in React.memo.
🎯 Why: These are heavy components (Monaco Editor and Canvas) that were re-rendering unnecessarily when parent state (like timers or progress bars) changed, even if their own props (code, dimensions) were stable.
πŸ“Š Impact: Eliminates re-renders of the editor and canvas during active gameplay (e.g. while timer ticks), reducing CPU usage and potential visual glitches.
πŸ”¬ Measurement: Verified via code review and existing tests that functionality and exports are preserved. Tests passed: src/__tests__/TurtleQuestion.test.tsx and src/__tests__/smoke.test.tsx.

…renders

Refactored PythonEditor and TurtleCanvas to use React.memo, preventing unnecessary re-renders of heavy components when parent state changes but props remain stable. This addresses performance bottlenecks in GamePage where timers or progress updates could cause editor flickering or heavy diffing.

- Wrapped PythonEditor in React.memo
- Wrapped TurtleCanvas in React.memo
- Added explanatory comments for the optimization
- Maintained named and default exports for compatibility
