perf tests: Speed up lock contention analysis shell test

The lock contention analysis test suite (`lock_contention.sh`) performs a
series of 13 separate profiling checks to verify various aggregation and
filtering parameters of `perf lock contention`. Each of these checks runs
the `perf bench sched messaging` messaging benchmark as its workload.

By default, `sched messaging` runs 10 groups of 40 processes (400
processes total) generating substantial task scheduling, context
switching, and IPC message passing. When traced system-wide for lock
events, the tracing overhead (handling millions of lock acquisitions and
releases) slows execution down significantly, causing the test suite to
take over 80 seconds.

Optimize this by introducing a scaled-down messaging benchmark workload:
`perf bench sched messaging -g 1 -p`. Running 1 group (40 processes) takes
only 0.01 seconds natively (instead of 0.08 seconds), drastically reduces
the sheer volume of lock acquire/release trace events, and reduces CPU
context switching during tracing while still generating sufficient lock
events to fully exercise the BPF/record filters.
