load test as part of CI

[akshaydeo]

Summary

Added a load testing script for Bifrost HTTP transport with accompanying results files to measure performance overhead.

Changes

• Added load-test.sh script that builds bifrost-http, sets up a mocker provider, and runs load tests
• Created results output files in both JSON and Markdown formats
• Script runs a 3000 RPS load test for 60 seconds against a mocker with 10-second base latency
• Updated .gitignore to exclude bifrost-benchmarking directory

Type of change

• Bug fix
• Feature
• Refactor
• Documentation
• Chore/CI

Affected areas

• Core (Go)
• Transports (HTTP)
• Providers/Integrations
• Plugins
• UI (Next.js)
• Docs

How to test

Run the load test script to validate Bifrost's performance:

# Make the script executable if needed
chmod +x .github/workflows/scripts/load-test.sh

# Run the load test
.github/workflows/scripts/load-test.sh

The script will:

1. Build bifrost-http if not present
2. Set up a mocker provider with 10s latency
3. Run a 3000 RPS load test for 60 seconds
4. Generate performance reports showing Bifrost's overhead

Security considerations

The script only runs locally and doesn't expose any sensitive information.

Checklist

• I read docs/contributing/README.md and followed the guidelines
• I added/updated tests where appropriate
