Add k6 performance tests for NCMP

This commit adds K6 tests for NCMP functionalities:
- Registration of 20000 CM-handles
- Synchronous single CM-handle passthrough read operation
- CM-handle and ID searches for no filter, module, and public property
- De-registration of 20000 CM-handles
- A mixed load test
Also includes a README and shell scripts to run all tests.
