Bolt: Single pass string iteration for token estimation

What: Replaced `utf8.RuneCountInString` with a manual count inside an existing string iteration loop in `pkg/routing/features.go`.
Why: The previous implementation performed two full iterations over the input string (one to count runes, one to count CJK characters).
Impact: Halves the execution time of `estimateTokens` by doing one string pass instead of two (~2x speedup in local benchmarks).
Measurement: Running `go test -bench . test_estimate_test.go` showed roughly double throughput for the single-pass implementation.

## 2024-05-24 - Single Pass String Iteration for Token Estimation
**Learning:** `utf8.RuneCountInString(msg)` performs a full iteration over the string. If the string needs to be iterated over again (e.g., `for _, r := range msg`) to check specific rune properties, this results in two full passes over the string.
**Action:** Always count the total number of runes manually within the existing `for range` loop when a subsequent full iteration of the string is already required. This essentially halves the execution time.
