Subject: [PATCH] Optimize create_sql_error_metadata

The optimized code achieves a **27% speedup** through two key optimizations that reduce Python's regex compilation overhead and string processing costs:

## **Key Optimizations:**

### 1. **Precompiled Regex Patterns**
The original code calls `re.search()` with raw pattern strings each time, causing Python to recompile the regex patterns on every function call. The optimization precompiles three regex patterns at module level:
```python
_LINE_COL_RE = re.compile(r"Line (\d+), Col: (\d+)")
_LINE_ONLY_RE = re.compile(r"LINE (\d+):")
_SQLGLOT_RE = re.compile(r"line (\d+), col (\d+)", re.IGNORECASE)
```

**Performance Impact**: Line profiler shows `_extract_sql_position` time drops from 1.98ms to 0.64ms (67% faster) - the regex compilation overhead was consuming ~60% of the function's runtime.

### 2. **Optimized String Processing for Hints**
The original code splits the entire exception message into lines with `exception_msg.split("\n")`, then processes all lines even when no hints exist. The optimization uses `string.find()` to locate the first newline, then processes only the remaining content when needed:
```python
nl = exception_msg.find("\n")
if nl == -1:
    hint_lines = []
else:
    rest = exception_msg[nl+1:]
    if rest:
        hint_lines = [line.strip() for line in rest.split("\n")]
```

**Performance Impact**: This reduces unnecessary string operations, particularly beneficial when no hints exist (176/241 test cases had no hints).

## **Test Case Performance Analysis:**
- **Basic cases**: 18-45% faster - primarily benefiting from regex precompilation
- **Edge cases with no position info**: 47-64% faster - avoiding multiple regex compilations when patterns don't match
- **Large-scale cases**: 8-45% faster - string processing optimizations become more significant with larger inputs

The optimizations are particularly effective for SQL error parsing workloads where the same regex patterns are applied repeatedly to analyze exception messages, making this ideal for SQL linting or error handling systems that process many SQL statements.
