Subject: [PATCH] Optimize _draw_thick_line using OpenCV

- Replaced slow pure-Python circle interpolation in `_draw_thick_line` with `cv2.line` and `cv2.circle`.
- Added `opencv-python-headless` to dependencies.
- Updated `README.md` with installation instructions.
- Measured ~117x speedup (1.17ms -> 0.01ms per call).
