πŸ’‘ What: Refactored the PlexOptimizedImage widget to move the resolvedDimension helper function out of the build method and into a top-level private function.

🎯 Why: Defining functions inside a build method causes a new function object (a closure) to be allocated on every widget rebuild. For frequently rebuilt widgets like images in a list, this creates unnecessary memory churn and adds overhead for the garbage collector.

πŸ“Š Impact: This change prevents the repeated allocation of the function object, reducing memory churn and CPU overhead during renders. While a micro-optimization, it contributes to smoother scrolling and better overall performance, especially in image-heavy views.

πŸ”¬ Measurement: The improvement can be observed by profiling the application's memory usage in Flutter DevTools. Before the change, memory allocation would show an increase in closures during scrolling. After the change, this specific allocation is eliminated.
