baseline performance reports

using this script to record performance metrics: https://github.com/catfact/norns-baseline

the goal is to keep a record of baseline performance characteristics running on the main branch, so that impact of proposed changes may be accurately assessed.

plot generator and captured data repo: https://github.com/catfact/norns-perf-plot

note that time series are plotted with a fixed Y-axis scale (for better comparisons) and violin plots are autoscaled (to capture extrema/outliers.)
