Melvin Alvarez f5f6005f80 feat(parallel): add GIL-free parallel DE with Rust objectives
- Implement RustObjective trait for GIL-free parallelization
- Add 5 benchmark functions: Sphere, Rosenbrock, Rastrigin, Ackley, Griewank
  * Each implements RustObjective with evaluate(), dimension(), global_optimum()
  * Exposed to Python with __call__ method

- Add parallel_differential_evolution_rust() function:
  * Uses Rayon for parallel population evaluation
  * Works with RustObjective implementations only
  * Eliminates Python GIL overhead for 10-100× speedup
  * Supports all DE strategies and adaptive parameters

- Create comprehensive examples:
  * parallel_de_benchmark.py: Performance benchmarks showing speedup
  * polaroid_optimizr_integration.py: 4 workflows combining Polaroid + OptimizR
    - Regime detection with HMM
    - Strategy parameter optimization
    - Portfolio risk analysis
    - Pairs trading pipeline

- Module integration:
  * Export benchmark functions in Python API
  * Export parallel_differential_evolution_rust
  * Update __init__.py and core.py with new functions

- Technical implementation:
  * RustObjective trait in src/rust_objectives.rs
  * Parallel evaluation uses par_iter() from Rayon
  * Per-thread RNG seeding for reproducibility
  * Maintains same API as standard DE for easy comparison

Part of Priority 2: Enable Rust parallelization (Enhancement Strategy)
Expected speedup: 10-100× on multi-core systems for pure Rust objectives

Parallel Differential Evolution Benchmark
==========================================
Compares serial Python callbacks vs parallel Rust objectives to demonstrate
the 10-100× speedup achievable with GIL-free parallelization.
Tests:
1. Sphere function (simple, convex)
2. Rosenbrock function (non-convex valley)
3. Rastrigin function (highly multimodal)
Metrics:
- Execution time (serial vs parallel)
- Speedup factor
- Solution quality (distance from global optimum)
- Function evaluations
