chore: optimised isChildPropertyPath to not use a regex and added more logging around calculateSubTreeSortOrder (#41162)

## Description
Reduced the cumulative contribution of isChildPropertyPath by
approximately 98%. During page load, it originally took around 100 ms
for a customer app on a Mac machine and is now down to 2 ms. As a
result, calculateSubTreeSortOrder has improved by 70% on the same setup.
Optimised sorting and removed redundant lookups in addNodes, which led
to marginal gains. This optimisation specifically targets a customer
scenario where addNodes and addDependantsOfNestedPropertyPaths are
heavily stressed, contributing to an overall latency of about 7 seconds.
Added additional logging to investigate the issue further.

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* Added a new function to improve detection of child property paths
supporting both dot and bracket notation.

* **Refactor**
* Optimized internal logic for managing dependency sets and improved
node addition efficiency.
  * Updated sorting method to accept arrays for better consistency.

* **Style**
* Enhanced code readability and maintainability with more concise
patterns.

* **Chores**
* Introduced performance timing and logging for key operations to aid in
monitoring and diagnostics.
