Add comprehensive type hints to performance tests

🔧 Type Safety Improvements:
- Added typing imports (Dict, List, Any, Optional, Tuple)
- Added type hints to all 25+ methods and functions
- Added type annotations to class attributes and instance variables
- Added proper return type annotations

📝 Enhanced Code Quality:
- Class attributes: AVATAR_STYLES: List[str], AVATAR_SIZES: List[int]
- Method parameters: All parameters now have explicit types
- Return types: All methods have proper return type annotations
- Complex types: Tuple[float, float], List[Dict[str, Any]], etc.

��️ Safety Improvements:
- Added runtime checks for None values
- Proper error handling for uninitialized clients
- Better type safety for optional parameters
- Enhanced IDE support and error detection

✅ Benefits:
- Better autocomplete and refactoring support
- Types serve as inline documentation
- Catch type-related errors before runtime
- Easier maintenance and collaboration
- Follows modern Python best practices

All functionality preserved and tested successfully.
