Add isHexColor validation function with branded type support (#46)

* feat: add isHexColor validation function and integrate into branded types

- Implemented isHexColor function to validate hexadecimal color codes.
- Added HexColor branded type for type safety.
- Enhanced assertions and builders to support HexColor.
- Updated performance and bundle size viewer to reflect new container IDs.
- Modified package.json to increase bundle size limits.
- Refactored performance table rendering logic for improved clarity and error handling.
- Added comprehensive tests for isHexColor and related functionality.

* chore(release): bump version to 0.21.0 and update changelog with new features and improvements

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [0.21.0] - 2025-10-15
+
+### Added
+
+- **New Function: `isHexColor()`** - Validates hexadecimal color codes with comprehensive format support
+
+  - Supports 3-digit (`#fff`), 6-digit (`#ffffff`), 4-digit with alpha (`#fff8`), and 8-digit with alpha (`#ffffff80`) formats
+  - Case-insensitive validation for all formats
+  - Pre-compiled regex for optimal performance
+  - Bundle size: 118 bytes raw, 103 bytes gzipped
+  - 100% test coverage with 32 test cases
+  - Use cases: design systems, theme validation, color picker validation, form validation
+
+- **Branded Type Integration for HexColor** - Full type-safe color handling
+  - New `HexColor` branded type for compile-time safety
+  - Type guard: `isValidHexColor()` for type narrowing
+  - Builder function: `toHexColor()` returns `HexColor | null` with validation
+  - Assertion function: `assertHexColor()` throws `BrandedTypeError` on invalid input
+  - Unsafe cast: `unsafeHexColor()` for trusted input (no validation)
+  - Integrates seamlessly with existing branded type system
+
+### Improved
+
+- **Benchmark Infrastructure** - Enhanced function extraction for more accurate metrics
+  - Added exclusion list for 26 branded type system helpers
+  - Separates core utilities (49 functions) from type system infrastructure
+  - Prevents metric inflation in bundle size and performance benchmarks
+  - More accurate representation of library capabilities
+  - Better comparison with other libraries (lodash, es-toolkit)
+
+### Documentation
+
+- Updated total function count from 48 to 49 core utilities
+- Added `isHexColor` to documentation site with interactive playground examples
+- Updated bundle size references to accurately reflect package size (< 12KB)
+- Regenerated benchmark data with new function
