#63038: Performance Tests: "before" checks fail on older PRs

 Priority:  normal            |  Milestone:  6.8
Component:  Build/Test Tools  |    Version:
 Severity:  normal            |   Keywords:
  Focuses:  performance       |
------------------------------+--------------------
 The Performance workflow includes a job for testing the performance of the
 previous commit in order to show the performance impact of the change
 compared to the latest commit prior to the change.

 This can fail on the "Download previous build artifact (target branch or
 previous commit)" step if the PR is old enough that the Artifact has
 expired.

 Ideally, PRs should test `trunk` against the current PR when applied to
 `trunk`, but if that is not easily possible, the tests should be able to
 create a new build from the prior state whenever the build artifact has
 expired.

 These were recently changed in [59749] which may be where this issue was
 introduced.
