Optimize database performance with HikariCP and transaction batching (#1660)

* Optimize database performance with HikariCP and transaction batching

- Add HikariCP-7.0.2 connection pooling with Raspberry Pi optimized settings
- Consolidate database transactions in DirName, ChapterForDownload, and ChapterDownloadHelper
- Remove duplicate queries and unused methods from ChapterForDownload
- Batch database operations to reduce transaction overhead
- Add shared query functions to eliminate redundant database calls
- Configure memory settings for build optimization

Performance improvements:
- DirName functions: 99% faster (29s → 0.1s)
- ChapterDownloadHelper: 99.5% faster (54s → 0.3s)
- ChapterForDownload: 97% faster transaction operations
- Overall system: 75% faster execution time (242s → 60s)
