Precomputation (3/4)

[GalMunGral]

Precompute lookup tables for chemical properties. See src/assets/blocks/10x10x10palette/data.json and src/assets/blocks/opv/data.json for the output formats. E.g. "5:0:2" represents start block 5 + no middle block + end block 2. The JSON is mostly designed to be consumed by the frontend:

• I put the table entries under their keys instead of in an array so that the frontend code can just directly use the parsed JSON object for lookup without needing to construct a Map or object from an array.
• The blocks are stored in 2D arrays (the first-level index is the position in the molecule (also stored in block.index), the second-level index is the block ID (1-based index) within each group of blocks (also stored in block.id)) so you can directly index into it to get the blocks. E.g. for molecule "5:0:2" the first block is blocks[0][5-1] and the last one is blocks[2][2-1].

LGTM 👍 Works as advertised! Thank you, @GalMunGral!

If these scripts run very quickly, we also have a Backend Python API if we want to turn any of these Python scripts into API endpoints that the frontend can call at runtime 😄

Thanks! I think eventually some of this (including the code on the frontend that's doing the lookups) will go to the backend.
