Automate RowFn benchmark comparisons

[connortsui20]

Rationale for this change

Makes RowFn performance comparisons repeatable across revisions. The runner records enough build and machine state to reject stale benchmark artifacts.

• Progress towards: Epic: Row-oriented scalar functions #9128

What changes are included in this PR?

Adds separate build and measurement phases, reusable revision-specific target directories, package-grouped parallel builds, alternating process order, machine records, and paired median summaries. The primary profile uses one codegen unit, fat LTO, target-cpu=native, two warm runs, and seven measured pairs.

Focused executor benchmarks and script tests cover framework overhead, strict validity, result parsing, changing inventories, and ratio aggregation. Reused artifacts are validated against the revision, dirty-state digest, Rust and Cargo versions, build configuration, suite inventory, and executable hash.

What APIs are changed? Are there any user-facing changes?

There are no public Rust API changes. This PR adds the developer-facing scripts/benchmark-rowfn.sh command and its result format.

Here are the local results that exercise the benchmark runner and its unchanged control suites.

The full-stack comparison used a develop baseline with benchmark-only backfills (1edd0fca) and the full RowFn stack (8ca9fc73). The machine was an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X running Linux. The build used rustc 1.97.1, LLVM 22.1.6, one CGU, fat LTO, and -C target-cpu=native.

The full comparison used two warm runs and seven alternating measured pairs. Each process used 100 samples with a 0.25–0.5 second measurement window on CPU 4. Negative changes are faster. The change is the median paired ratio, not the ratio of the two displayed medians.

This PR does not change these production paths. The control binaries still show layout-sensitive movement, including 14.72–17.21% regressions for list take/filter and a 15.66% improvement for per-row like. The focused cleanup comparison keeps RowFn executor cases within 0.93% and strict-validity cases within 1.64%.

RowFn executor cleanup comparison: 8 cases
