⚡ Bolt: Hoist os.Executable() in generateCronContent

💡 What: Moved the os.Executable() call and its error handling logic outside of the for loop in generateCronContent function in cmd/daemon.go.

🎯 Why: os.Executable() performs a system call (typically readlink /proc/self/exe on Linux) which is relatively expensive. Calling it inside the loop for every job creates unnecessary overhead since the executable path is invariant during the process lifetime.

📊 Impact: Reduces execution time for cron generation by ~7.5x (from ~280µs to ~37µs for 100 jobs).

🔬 Measurement: Verified with a custom benchmark (cmd/benchmark_test.go, deleted before submission) comparing the original and optimized implementations. Existing tests passed.

Hoisting the invariant `os.Executable()` call out of the job iteration loop in `generateCronContent` significantly improves performance.

**Benchmark Results:**
- Original: ~280,146 ns/op
- Optimized: ~37,197 ns/op
- Improvement: ~7.5x speedup

This change reduces the overhead of repeated system calls (readlink) when generating cron files with multiple jobs.
