Add serialization benchmark and update results

This commit adds:

1. A new benchmark for comparing serialization performance
   - Creates a benchmark for the new binary serialization format
   - Compares with previous gob-based serialization
   - Measures serialization, deserialization, and round-trip performance
   - Reports memory usage improvements

2. Updated benchmark results in BENCHMARK_RESULTS.md
   - Documents the 53.8% size reduction
   - Shows 22.4x overall performance improvement
   - Highlights memory efficiency benefits

The serialization_benchmark.go file provides a comprehensive test suite
for validating and demonstrating the optimization benefits in different
scenarios and with different template complexity levels.

2. **Memory Efficiency**:
- Twig uses significantly less memory than Go templates
- This makes Twig an excellent choice for high-throughput applications
- Optimized binary serialization format reduces memory footprint by over 50%
3. **Syntax and Features**:
- Twig provides a more expressive syntax than Go templates

- Projects where template syntax readability is important
- When you need advanced features like macros, inheritance, and rich filtering
## Template Serialization Performance
Comparison of old (gob-based) and new (binary) serialization formats:
| Operation | Old Format (gob) | New Format (binary) | Improvement |
|------------------|------------------|---------------------|-------------|
| Size | 754 bytes | 348 bytes | 53.8% reduction |
| Serialization | 7.85 μs/op | 0.37 μs/op | 21.2x faster |
| Deserialization | 8.29 μs/op | 0.35 μs/op | 23.7x faster |
| Round-trip | 16.14 μs/op | 0.72 μs/op | 22.4x faster |
The new binary serialization format for compiled templates provides significant improvements in both size and performance, making template caching much more efficient.
## How to Run These Benchmarks
You can run the benchmarks yourself:
