Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked Leaflet.VectorGrid Slicer documentation and Folium's Circle-related API. The issue does not name any Folium files, tests, or concrete change, so first establish whether the requested integration is feasible and define a scoped implementation and acceptance criteria before making changes.

Description

Hello all !

Quick question to deal with performance issues. I have a lot of circles with pop-up to display and i just discovered VectorGrid Slicer could handle easily many geometries, by playing between zoom & precision. I was wondering if this is applicable to folium Circles (as of now, or even considering minor developments).

Regards,
Bastien
