Performance smoke

Performance smoke was skipped for this PR because no perf-sensitive paths changed.

State

• Coverage, compatibility, and sampled performance are reported here from the same PR workflow.
• This is a delta report, not a release gate by itself. Required checks still decide merge safety.
• Performance smoke was intentionally skipped because no perf-sensitive paths changed in this PR.
• Delta states use the same noise guards as the quality gate (percent + absolute + low-baseline checks), so report labels match merge-gate behavior.
