chore: Refactor benchmarks for feature handling

Helps with argumentcomputer/ci-workflows#49

- Renamed several environmental variables in various benchmarking scripts and configuration files for consistency.
- Introduced a new section for performing comparative benchmarks based on respective features and architecture.
- Added a new variable to the default benchmark configuration, `BENCH_OUTPUT`, set to `commit-comment`.
