test(geode): keep deletion-settle benchmark as robust shape guard

Drop the flaky publish-into-large-relay warmup from DeletionSettleBenchmark
(it timed out the measured reconcile at N=100k — the container noise the
docstring already warns against) and remove the throwaway ScratchSettleTiming
investigation tool. Record in the docstring what the phase breakdown proved:
the settle's extra time over a bare reconcile is O(K) relay-ingest of the K
residual deletions, dominated by one-time JVM/JIT warmup of the publish path
(consecutive K-note batches fell ~3100->570ms), not the deletion algorithm and
not O(N).

* is NOT the deletion algorithm (a phase breakdown showed reconciles stay ~sub-second at
* N=100k, and the settle re-fetches K=20, not N). It is entirely the K `publishAndConfirm`

* Default N is small so it doubles as a fast correctness guard; scale it with
* `-DdelBenchN=200000` to see the shape at size. Not a speed assertion (container noise).
