kingchenc 2aef8c8db5 perf(linreg): incremental O(1) OLS for LinearRegression and LinRegSlope (R2)
`LinearRegression::fit` and `LinRegSlope::update` previously iterated the
full `period`-window on every tick to recompute `Σy` and `Σxy` from
scratch — O(period) per update, in violation of the `Indicator` trait's
O(1) contract. `LinRegAngle` inherits the cost transitively because it
delegates to `LinRegSlope`.

This commit slides the OLS state in closed form. The constant terms
(`Σx`, `Σxx`, the denominator `n·Σxx − (Σx)²`) were already precomputed
in `new`. The new running state is:

- `sum_y: f64` — running sum of the values currently in the window.
- `sum_xy: f64` — running Σ(x · y) where `x` is the position of each
  value inside the trailing window (`0` for the oldest, `n−1` for the
  newest).

On every push, when the window is already full the front value `y₀` is
popped and the indices of every remaining value shift down by 1; the
identity

    new_Σxy = old_Σxy − old_Σy + y₀

closes the slide in O(1). The new value is then pushed at position `k`
(the current length before the push), contributing `k · new_value` to
`sum_xy` and `new_value` to `sum_y`. The output is the same TA-Lib OLS
formula evaluated against the incremental accumulators.

Behaviour is unchanged: same per-tick values, same warmup, same NaN
semantics. Two new tests compare the O(1) result bar-by-bar against a
fresh O(n) refit on a noisy ramp (sliding-phase dominated), a step
function (large pop/push deltas), and constants (tests floating-point
drift) — agreement is within `1e-9`.

`LinRegAngle` benefits automatically through its `LinRegSlope` field.

/// Linear Regression — the endpoint of a rolling least-squares fit.
///
/// Over the last `period` inputs, indexed `x = 0, 1, …, period 1`, it fits
/// the line `y = a + b·x` by ordinary least squares and reports the line's
/// value at the most recent point:
///
/// ```text
/// b (slope) = (n·Σxy Σx·Σy) / (n·Σxx (Σx)²)
/// a (intercept) = (Σy b·Σx) / n
/// LinearReg = a + b·(period 1)
/// ```
///
/// This is TA-Lib's `LINEARREG`: a smoothed price that lags less than an SMA
/// because it extrapolates the *local trend* forward to the current bar
/// instead of averaging it away.
///
/// Each `update` is O(1): the `Σx` and `Σxx` terms depend only on `period` and
/// are precomputed once, while `Σy` and `Σxy` are maintained incrementally as
/// the window slides. The closed-form sliding-window identity for
/// `x = 0, 1, …, period 1` is
///
/// ```text
/// new_sum_xy = old_sum_xy old_sum_y + popped_y0 // index shift by 1
/// new_sum_y = old_sum_y popped_y0
/// // then push the new value at index n1:
/// sum_xy += (n 1) · new_value
/// sum_y += new_value
/// ```
///
/// # Example

/// let mut last = None;
