Make this regression test detect the performance regression.

These assertions verify only output. The pre-fix scanner produces the same output, so this test passes on the old quadratic path and does not protect the performance fix. Add a deterministic bound on delimiter-scan work, such as a comparison or method-call count. Do not assert elapsed time.

As per path instructions, changed tests should catch real regressions and should use event or count assertions instead of elapsed-time assertions.

84:
Update the regression test around the result assertions to verify a
deterministic bound on delimiter-scan work, using an operation or method-call
count rather than elapsed time. Keep the existing output assertions so the test
covers both correctness and the performance regression.

After applying the fix, consider running `coderabbit review --agent` for local
review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli?utm_source=ghpr
