This PR introduces a new efficient API for appending two-digit integers to StringBuilders and refactors DateTimeHelper to leverage this new functionality.
Changes include: 1. New `appendPair` method for efficient two-digit integer formatting (00-99): - Added `AbstractStringBuilder.appendPair(int i)` with core implementation - Added `JavaLangAccess.appendPair(StringBuilder, int)` for internal access - Added `System.JavaLangAccessImpl.appendPair(StringBuilder, int)` bridge - Added `DecimalDigits.appendPair(StringBuilder, int)` public static utility method - Enhanced Javadoc documentation for all new methods 2. Refactored `DateTimeHelper` to use the new `DecimalDigits.appendPair`: - Updated `DateTimeHelper.formatTo` methods for `LocalDate` and `LocalTime` - Replaced manual formatting logic with the new efficient two-digit appending - Improved code clarity and consistency in date/time formatting These changes improve code clarity and performance when formatting two-digit numbers, particularly in date/time formatting scenarios. ------------- Commit messages: - Optimize year formatting in DateTimeHelper by reducing modulo operation - Refactor DateTimeHelper to use DecimalDigits.appendPair for date/time formatting\n\nThis change updates DateTimeHelper.formatTo methods for LocalDate and LocalTime\nto use the new DecimalDigits.appendPair method for formatting month, day, hour,\nminute, and second components. This improves code clarity and leverages the\nnewly introduced efficient two-digit integer appending functionality. - Introduce appendPair method for efficient two-digit integer appending\n\nThis change adds a new internal API to efficiently append two-digit integers\n(00-99) to a StringBuilder. It includes:\n- AbstractStringBuilder.appendPair(int i): The core implementation.\n- JavaLangAccess.appendPair(StringBuilder, int): For internal access.\n- System.JavaLangAccessImpl.appendPair(StringBuilder, int): Bridge to AbstractStringBuilder.\n- DecimalDigits.appendPair(StringBuilder, int): Public static utility method.\n\nImproved Javadoc comments for clarity and consistency across all new methods.
