[Oracle] Add RAM usage benchmarks for the oracle importer

- Measure process peak/current RSS via procfs (Linux) or getrusage (macOS)
- Add a synthetic-scale RAM benchmark and an opt-in real AllPrintings
  run gated by COCKATRICE_ORACLE_RAM_BENCHMARK=1
- Mirror the wizard's magic-byte handling to decompress .xz/.zip payloads
- Wire optional ZLIB/LibLZMA into the benchmark target and raise its timeout
