Add PrecompileTools.jl and @compile_workload to precompile the most common code paths used by pois_rand: - count_rand path (λ < 6) with Float64 - ad_rand path (λ >= 6) with Float64 - PassthroughRNG variants for GPU compatibility Before (baseline): - Load time: 41.0 ms - TTFX: 328.7 ms - Total time to first useful computation: 406.8 ms After (with PrecompileTools): - Load time: 97.7 ms (slightly higher due to precompile workload caching) - TTFX: 11.9 ms - Total time to first useful computation: 149.9 ms This is a 63% improvement in time-to-first-useful-computation. Analysis: - No invalidations detected (package is already clean) - Inference time dropped from ~0.34s to ~0.009s for main code paths 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The slight increase in load time is due to restoring cached native code, while TTFX drops dramatically because the code paths are already compiled.
