Add no_warmup parameter to cmd_params struct and command-line parsing to allow users to skip warmup runs before benchmarking.
- Add no_warmup boolean field to cmd_params struct
- Add --no-warmup command-line argument parsing
- Add help text documentation for the new flag
- Wrap existing warmup logic in conditional check
- Maintain full backward compatibility (warmup enabled by default)

* threading: support for GGML_SCHED_PRIO_LOW, update thread info on Windows to avoid throttling
We talked about adding LOW priority for GGML threads in the original threadpool PR.
It might be useful for some cases to avoid contention.
Latest Windows ARM64 releases started parking (offlining) the CPU cores
more aggresively which results in suboptimal performance with n_threads > 4.
To deal with that we now disable Power Throttling for our threads for the NORMAL
and higher priorities.

* Remove mmap workaround on windows
After some testing I found that mmap is supported on windows and for
many GPUs on Linux. Therefore I remove the workaround for windows since
it is not necessary.
* Update llama-bench README
SYCL backend introduced a workaround that allows execution of
llama-bench also without specifying `--mmp 0` flag
