Speed up function _operation by 80%

[misrasaurabh1]

📄 80% (0.80x) speedup for _operation in dash/_patch.py

⏱️ Runtime : 477 microseconds → 264 microseconds (best of 393 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The largest bottleneck identified is from the unnecessary use of dict(**kwargs), which creates a new dictionary from kwargs, but since kwargs is already a dictionary, this is just a redundant and potentially slower operation. You can use kwargs directly, which saves both CPU and memory.

Explanation:

• Returning kwargs as is avoids an unnecessary dictionary copy, achieving lower runtime and memory usage.
• The return value is unchanged: the "params" entry will be the dictionary of arguments supplied via **kwargs.

This is the fastest and leanest way to implement your functionality per the profiling results.

@T4rk1n do you believe the failing tests will be fixed if your latest CI changes are merged into this branch? (This seems like a simple and correct fix.)
