feat: add performance testing workflow for PR workflow (#1079)

# Description

This pull request introduces a new job for performance testing and
modifies the existing workflow for network performance measurement. The
main changes include adding a new performance test job to the
`images.yaml` workflow and updating the `perf.yaml` workflow to
streamline its execution.

New performance test job:

*
[`.github/workflows/images.yaml`](diffhunk://#diff-d0a3d6684c78a148cbf0725d5fe8b5aab6431da05b698a82c9e015516f3020baR334-R366):
Added a new job `perf` to run Retina Performance Tests after the
`manifests` job completes successfully. This job includes steps for
checking out the code, setting up Go, logging into Azure CLI, and
running end-to-end tests with performance tags.

Updates to network performance measurement workflow:

*
[`.github/workflows/perf.yaml`](diffhunk://#diff-1aa140a875fcb7cae6b4ada7e6e973c4d55179ad046f56465f9f0ec592f283caL4-L7):
Removed the `workflow_run` trigger and replaced it with a scheduled
trigger to run the workflow every 12 hours.
*
[`.github/workflows/perf.yaml`](diffhunk://#diff-1aa140a875fcb7cae6b4ada7e6e973c4d55179ad046f56465f9f0ec592f283caL23):
Removed the condition to check for `workflow_run` or `merge_group`
events in the `perf_test` job.
*
[`.github/workflows/perf.yaml`](diffhunk://#diff-1aa140a875fcb7cae6b4ada7e6e973c4d55179ad046f56465f9f0ec592f283caL54-R52):
Updated the `TAG` assignment logic to exclude the `merge_group` event
and set the image registry to `ghcr.io`.
