⚡️ Speed up method CsvParser._cast_types by 18% in PR #44438 (strosek/gcs_decode_error_issue_8952)

Certainly! To optimize the code, one can focus on multiple aspects like reducing the overhead of unnecessary checks, avoiding redundant operations, efficient use of data structures, and minimizing log string concatenations. Here is the optimized version of your given code.



### Optimization Highlights.
1. **Concise Manual Validation**: Combined `quote_char`, `escape_char` validation into a single validator.
2. **Helper Functions**: Utilized a generalized helper function to avoid repetition and handle specific validations concisely.
3. **Import Statements Simplified**: Removed unnecessary imports and rearranged for better readability.
4. **Combined Error Logging**: Concatenated log messages in a single operation to minimize the overhead.
5. **Proper Use of Pythonic Constructs**: Optimized type casting while skipping unnecessary checks and directly handling edge cases.

This optimized version should maintain the functionality while potentially improving performance due to fewer and more efficient operations.
