fix(ci): make benchmark-regression resilient to missing S3 baselines

- Add baseline availability check before running ASV continuous
  (skip gracefully when no prior benchmarks exist from S3 sync)
- Update asv.conf.json branches to explicitly include both master and HEAD
  (ASV needs both configured for 'asv continuous' comparison)
- Add success_codes=[0,1,2] to allow ASV error codes without CI failure
  (exit code 1 = infrastructure error, not regression)
