perf(rust): add scale benchmarks S6-S8, S10-S11 for large flag stores (#93)

## Summary

- Adds criterion benchmarks for large flag configurations (1K–100K
flags)
- Confirms O(1) evaluation lookup at scale — no degradation with 10K
flags in store
- Flag generation uses production-like distribution: 70% static, 25%
targeting, 5% disabled

## Benchmarks Added

| ID | Scenario | Result |
|----|----------|--------|
| S6 | `update_state` with 1,000 flags | ~9.3 ms |
| S7 | `update_state` with 10,000 flags | (longer run) |
| S8 | `update_state` with 100,000 flags | (longer run) |
| S10 | Evaluate static flag from 10K store | ~101 ns |
| S11 | Evaluate targeting flag from 10K store | ~665 ns |

S9 (1M flags) skipped as it may be too slow for CI.

## Run

```bash
cargo bench -- scale
```

## Test plan

- [x] `cargo bench -- S6` runs and produces results
- [x] S10/S11 confirm O(1) lookup (comparable to baseline evaluation
benchmarks)
- [x] `cargo test --lib -- --test-threads=1` — all existing tests pass

Closes #86
