Ability to run a benchmark between 2 branches

Currently, benchmark ci run only compares a branch with a pull request id, but issues like regressions between releases require to benchmark a branch (v18.x) with another branch (v16.x). It would be nice to have a different ci job to compare branches.

This came up before and stalled out when the benchmarking WG died. https://github.com/nodejs/build/issues/1059
