benchmark: adjust configuration for string-decoder bench

According to #59186 this
benchmark file takes 6 hours to complete a full benchmark/compare.js
script (60 runs in total) and this regression tests unrealitics to do
between Node.js releases. By using calibrate-n scripts I could find
a better N also ajusting some bench configs. e.g: avoid dead code
elimination by V8.
