Optimize getter performance by caching memoization symbols

- Pre-compute and cache memoization symbols during FastGetBuilder construction
- Eliminates repeated Symbol.for() calls identified as bottleneck in CPU profiles
- Reduces symbol lookup overhead in hot path for read-only instance getters
- Add getter-optimization benchmark for targeted performance validation
- All existing tests pass, maintaining API compatibility
