Add an --analyze flag that performs statistical analysis directly
after benchmarks complete, eliminating the need for R and compare.R.
When --analyze is specified, compare.js collects the rate data during
the run and prints a statistical summary table instead of CSV output.
The table matches the format of compare.R: improvement percentage,
significance stars (* p<0.05, ** p<0.01, *** p<0.001), and confidence
intervals at three risk levels.
Also adds a --max-regression N option that causes the compare.js to
exit with 1 (error) when the `--new` is N% slower. Useful for CI
use to detect regressions.
Uses the histogram API's welchTest() and cohensD() methods introduced
in the previous commit. Benchmark rates are scaled to integers for
HdrHistogram recording; the --scale option (default 1000) controls
the multiplier for precision.
Usage:
node benchmark/compare.js --old ./node-old --new ./node-new \
--analyze url
