Run a subset of benchmarking job steps on GitHub action runners in Azure - closer to the system under test (#8651)

## Problem

Latency from one cloud provider to another one is higher than within the
same cloud provider.
Some of our benchmarks are latency sensitive - we run a pgbench or psql
in the github action runner and the system under test is running in Neon
(database project).
For realistic perf tps and latency results we need to compare apples to
apples and run the database client in the same "latency distance" for
all tests.

## Summary of changes

Move job steps that test Neon databases deployed on Azure into Azure
action runners.
- bench strategy variant using azure database
- pgvector strategy variant using azure database
- pgbench-compare strategy variants using azure database

## Test run
