💡 What:
Replaces the msg.content.trim().split(' ').filter(function (n) { return n !== ''; }) text parsing logic with .match(/\S+/g) || [] across all bot/modules/*Tipper.js plugins, and similarly optimizes msg.content.split(' ')[0] with (msg.content.match(/\S+/g) || [''])[0] inside bot/bot.js.

🎯 Why:
The legacy approach was creating intermediate array allocations during .split(' ') and looping over all array entries in the .filter() callback. In high-traffic scenarios, Discord bots frequently process chat strings, and reducing memory overhead on message routing saves CPU and memory pressure for GC cycles.

📊 Impact:
Memory usage associated with intermediate array generation and string operations when computing parsed command vectors is reduced. Less CPU overhead is spent parsing non-meaningful spaces out of bot commands. Array allocations and iterative callback executions per message are diminished.

🔬 Measurement:
Tested syntax generation manually via node -c since typical Node v22.22 npm run tests currently fails on node-gyp.
Can verify operations locally via sending tip commands and reviewing output memory snapshots if required. Code formatting updated.

Replaces inefficient chained `.trim().split(' ').filter(...)` string processing with a direct regex `.match(/\S+/g) || []`. This avoids allocating multiple intermediate arrays per message and executing callback filters, improving string handling throughput across all Tipbot modules. Use `(match || [''])[0]` structure in `bot.js` for safe fallback against undefined indices. Added formatting standard execution over the modules directory and maintained learning insights correctly to `bolt.md`.
