⚡ Bolt: [performance improvement]

[vishnu-madhavan-git]

💡 What:
Replaced .toString() calls chained onto readFileSync with directly passing the 'utf8' encoding parameter to readFileSync in packages/expo-brownfield/plugin/src/common/filesystem.ts and packages/pod-install/src/index.ts.

🎯 Why:
When no encoding is passed to readFileSync, Node.js returns a raw Buffer object which must then be explicitly converted to a string using .toString(). By passing 'utf8' directly into readFileSync, Node.js skips allocating the intermediate Buffer object and directly returns a string.

📊 Impact:
Reduces memory allocation overhead. It acts as a minor efficiency improvement by avoiding the intermediate memory buffer.

🔬 Measurement:
To verify, you can ensure the files continue to be read accurately without failures. All existing package tests pass without regressions (yarn --cwd packages/expo-brownfield test --passWithNoTests and yarn --cwd packages/pod-install jest --passWithNoTests).
