chore: refactor and optimize core code

[Ayoub-Mabrouk]

This update refines the zoom and pan functionalities with cleaner, more modern JavaScript. Key improvements include:

• Utilized newer JS features for clearer code.
• Optimized Performance and Streamlined functions for better efficiency.
• Enhanced Readability: Improved naming for easier understanding.
  These changes improve both performance and code clarity.

This contains changed behaviour and IMO is not more readable/cleaner

Thank you for your feedback!
I appreciate your thoughts on the changes. The update aimed to refine the zoom and pan functionalities and improve performance, but I understand that you feel the readability has not improved.

Could you please share specific examples or areas where you see issues? I’m open to discussing potential adjustments to enhance clarity while maintaining the benefits of the update.

These code changes don't look like they were made by a human. I agree with trullock in that these changes are not more readable.

That aside, this library does not seem well-maintained.

My fork at https://github.com/trullock/chartjs-plugin-zoom which is published on npm as @trullock/chartjs-plugin-zoom, is in a slightly better state, but I offer no warranties, I've simply merged some PRs and fixed bugs I've encountered

I'm afraid I don't have time to do this in depth

but at a minimum:

you've made scores of unrelated (and untested) changes in one go, this is bad because it cant esily be tested and will never be merged

youve made changes that make the code less readable. shorter code is not better code.

Youve also made actual changes, the behaviour is different. I cant remember where, it was a month ago
