metrics_compare_base: catch TimeoutExpired; fix code-size skill docs

- run() now catches subprocess.TimeoutExpired (only triggered by `cmake --build`'s
  timeout=600) and returns CompletedProcess(rc=124) so the caller falls through to
  error reporting and worktree cleanup instead of crashing with a traceback.
- code-size SKILL.md: document the actual default filter (per-side absolute
  <checkout>/src/ path, not the old `tinyusb/src` substring) and adjust the
  reporting guidance to match what the report rows actually contain.

 - **Base ref:** default `master`. Override with `--base-branch <ref>` (tag or commit also works).
-- **Filter:** default `tinyusb/src` (only counts TinyUSB stack code, not example/BSP). Change only if asked.
+- **Filter:** default is the absolute path of each side's `<checkout>/src/` directory, which uniquely identifies TinyUSB stack code without matching vendored deps that also have a `src/` (e.g. `pico-sdk/src/`). Override with one or more `-f SUBSTRING` flags to use repo-relative substrings instead. Change only if asked.

+- Highlight any rows with non-zero `% diff` — under the default filter every row is a TinyUSB stack source file (e.g. `usbd.c`, `cdc_device.c`, `dcd_<port>.c`), so any non-zero delta is a real stack-size impact.
 - If the diff is unexpected, follow up with a single-example `--bloaty` run to localize.
