Refactored inline UTF-8 validation logic in pkg/analysis/topology/topology.go into a helper function truncateToValidUTF8. This ensures O(N) complexity when processing binary data or invalid UTF-8 strings, preventing potential DoS vulnerabilities from O(N^2) behavior. Added unit tests to cover edge cases.
