Limit README current-only baseline rows to historical reports.

README.md says that comparisons against a pre-API baseline keep supported new workloads as current-only measurements. docs/BENCHMARKING.md requires both baseline and current phases for new exact comparisons. It allows current-only rows only in frozen historical reports that predate the rational-input API.

Maintainers reading the README cannot tell whether a new comparison may omit the baseline phase. Align the README with the guide, or state the historical-report limit in the README.
