feat: Implement performance optimizations in speaking_route.py

- Added asynchronous processing for post-assessment tasks to reduce processing time.
- Introduced shared instances for G2P and ThreadPoolExecutor to improve resource management.
- Implemented caching for G2P results to avoid redundant computations.
- Enhanced IPA assessment processing with parallel execution for character analysis, phoneme scoring, and focus phonemes analysis.
- Created a performance testing script to validate optimizations and measure improvements.
- Documented optimization strategies and performance metrics in PERFORMANCE_OPTIMIZATION.md.
