Optimize ASGI protocol for 16x performance improvement

- Replace datetime.now() with time.monotonic() for request timing
- Add access_log_enabled property to skip log work when disabled
- Rewrite BodyReceiver with Future-based waiting (no create_task)
- Remove StreamReader for HTTP/1.1, use direct bytearray buffering
- Add BufferReader wrapper for FastAsyncRequest compatibility
- Use pre-cached chunk prefixes in _send_body()
- Convert async methods to sync where no await needed
- Batch response writes (headers + body in single write)

Performance: 4,200 -> 69,500 req/s
