docs: update README comparison table, performance, and roadmap

- Comparison table: add DoH/DoT upstream, DoH server, request hedging,
  serve-stale + prefetch, conditional forwarding rows
- Performance: update with current benchmark numbers (0.1ms cached,
  47x NextDNS, p99 -28% vs Unbound)
- Roadmap: add hedging, serve-stale, conditional forwarding, DoT upstream
- Fix broken benchmarks link (bench/ → benches/)

## Performance ## Performance
691ns cached round-trip. ~2.0M qps throughput. Zero heap allocations in the hot path. Recursive queries average 237ms after SRTT warmup (12x improvement over round-robin). ECDSA P-256 DNSSEC verification: 174ns. [Benchmarks →](bench/) 0.1ms cached queries — matches Unbound, 47× faster than NextDNS. Wire-level cache stores raw bytes with in-place TTL patching. Request hedging eliminates p99 spikes: cold recursive p99 538ms vs Unbound 748ms (28%), σ 4× tighter. [Benchmarks →](benches/)
