Cleanup spread operators in reduce calls (#157471)
## Summary

The spread operator is costly and put pressure on GC. It should be
avoided when possible, especially in loops.

This PR adapts a lot of `reduce` calls in the codebase to remove the
usages of the diabolic spread operator, when possible.

Note: the PR is not fully exhaustive. I focused on the server-side, as
we're more directly impacted than on browser-side code regarding
performances.

## Removing `...` usages in `kittens.reduce()`

For `reduce` loops, the spread operator can usually easily be replaced:

#### - setting a value on the accum object and returning it

#### BAD
```ts
  return this.toArray().reduce(
      (acc, renderer) => ({
        ...acc,
        [renderer.name]: renderer,
      }),
      {} as Record<string, ExpressionRenderer>
    );
```

#### GOOD
```ts
  return this.toArray().reduce((acc, renderer) => {
      acc[renderer.name] = renderer;
      return acc;
    }, {} as Record<string, ExpressionRenderer>);
```


#### - assigning values to the accum object and returning it 

#### BAD
```ts
  const allAggs: Record<string, any> = fieldAggRequests.reduce(
      (aggs: Record<string, any>, fieldAggRequest: unknown | null) => {
        return fieldAggRequest ? { ...aggs, ...(fieldAggRequest as Record<string, any>) } : aggs;
      },
      {}
    );
```

#### GOOD
```ts
  const allAggs = fieldAggRequests.reduce<Record<string, any>>(
      (aggs: Record<string, any>, fieldAggRequest: unknown | null) => {
        if (fieldAggRequest) {
          Object.assign(aggs, fieldAggRequest);
        }
        return aggs;
      },
      {}
    );
```

#### - pushing items to the accum list and returning it 

#### BAD
```ts
  const charsFound = charToArray.reduce(
    (acc, char) => (value.includes(char) ? [...acc, char] : acc),
    [] as string[]
  );
```

#### GOOD
```ts
  const charsFound = charToArray.reduce((acc, char) => {
    if (value.includes(char)) {
      acc.push(char);
    }
    return acc;
  }, [] as string[]);
```

## Questions

#### Are you sure all the changes in this are strictly better for
runtime performances?

Yes, yes I am.

#### How much better?

Likely not much.

#### Are you planning on analyzing the perf gain?

Nope.

#### So why did you do it?

I got tired of seeing badly used spread operators in my team's owned
code, and I had some extra time during on-week, so I spent a few hours
adapting the usages in all our runtime/production codebase.

#### Was it fun?

Take your best guess.
