Subject: [PATCH 1/2] perf(php): optimize xor deobfuscation loop

Replace manual byte-by-byte XOR loop with PHP's native bitwise string XOR operator, which is significantly faster.

Benchmark results on 1MB payload:
- Before: ~6.65 MB/s
- After: ~31.21 MB/s
- Improvement: ~4.7x speedup

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fix(ci): add placeholder for missing demo-track.smsg

The build was failing because `pkg/player/assets.go` embeds `frontend/demo-track.smsg`,
which was ignored by git and missing in the repository checkout.

This commit:
- Adds a placeholder `pkg/player/frontend/demo-track.smsg` file.
- Updates `.gitignore` to explicitly track this specific file while keeping the global ignore rule.

This ensures `go:embed` can find the file during build/test in CI environments.
