test: avoid timer race in event loop delay test

[trivikr]

Refs: https://github.com/nodejs/reliability/issues?q=sort%3Aupdated-desc%20test-performance-eventloopdelay

Problem

The test enables the histogram and checks it from a 20 ms timer.

On slow or contended systems, that timer can expire before the first complete event loop iteration.
The timer then disables the histogram before its uv_check callback records a sample.

Previous fixes addressed related but distinct failures:

• test: fix flaky test-performance-eventloopdelay #61629 deferred assertions for the interval-based histogram.
• test: relax min assertion in test-performance-eventloopdelay #63100 allowed a valid minimum histogram value of zero.

The failing samplePerIteration checks were added later by #62935 and still depend on elapsed time.

Solution

Drive a known number of event loop iterations using setImmediate before disabling and checking each histogram.

The default-resolution and large-resolution checks share one iteration chain, removing the duplicated timing logic.
