fix(bench): [M23] prevent single_frame_tail/head overlap for small files

- Extract shared FRAME_LINES constant into suites/mod.rs
- Add select_frame_positions() helper with 3*FRAME_LINES threshold
  to guarantee non-overlapping head/middle/tail ranges
- Guard bench_reverse_scan against total <= FRAME_LINES
- Add 9 boundary tests for position selection (0..1M lines)

Closes #42
