Adds `.gitignore` rules to exclude benchmark outputs and local build artifacts. Initializes Serena AI configuration for the Go project with UTF-8 encoding and gitignore-based file exclusion. Refactors the FASTSEQ header parser to fix regex syntax, optimize alternation ordering, improve control flow readability, and introduce explicit float-to-int coercion that preserves fractional values.
Extends OBI header parsing to recognize and deserialize JSON-like arrays and objects. Introduces safe conversion utilities in `obiutils` to cast generic interface values into typed maps, and exposes them via new `BioSequence` methods. Header values are now marshaled, quote-normalized, and formatted for map and slice types.
