Andrew Hundt e2d4b35915 test(perf): add persistent mcp index benchmark
Add --transport=cli|mcp to the incremental speed benchmark. The MCP path keeps one JSON-RPC server process alive for each measurement phase and detects full versus exact incremental routes from index_repository publish_kind metadata instead of stderr logs.

The harness still preserves the cold CLI path and cleanup behavior, and reports publish_kind alongside existing wall/logged timing fields for current and future performance comparisons.

"""Measure fast-mode exact incremental indexing against a fresh full rebuild.
This is an explicit opt-in performance gate. It creates a synthetic Go repo in
a temporary work root, uses an isolated CBM_CACHE_DIR, enables disk incremental
indexing only for that cache, and removes only paths it created.
