⚡ Bolt: Optimize _coerce_list for performance

[thirdeyenation]

💡 What: Refactored _coerce_list to use the walrus operator (:=) for redundant .strip() calls and replaced re.split(r"\s+", value) with the native value.split().
🎯 Why: To reduce redundant string manipulations and avoid the overhead of regex parsing for simple whitespace splitting.
📊 Impact: Measured ~2.2x speedup in the list coercion function, which processes comma-separated strings or lists of tags frequently.
🔬 Measurement: Measured using a custom benchmarking script, which ran _coerce_list over 10k iterations against various inputs.
