mukesh 46291bf91b PE-to-PE latency: drop h5 inter-SIP panel from overview
Remove h5_inter_sip from the hop list and switch the overview grid
from 2x3 to 2x2. RAW DMA was unavailable for the cross-SIP hop, so
the panel only carried IPCQ data and was redundant with h4_inter_cube
for the topology comparison.

Regenerate pe2pe_latency_plots/overview.png and summary.csv; delete
the obsolete h5_inter_sip.png.

"""PE-to-PE latency sweep across hop types and data sizes.
Compares IPCQ send/recv vs raw-DMA (tl.load + tl.store) latency for four
hop types:
H1 Intra-cube horizontal pe0 → pe1
H2 Intra-cube vertical pe0 → pe4
H3 Inter-cube horizontal sip0.cube0.pe0 → sip0.cube1.pe0
H4 Inter-cube vertical sip0.cube0.pe0 → sip0.cube4.pe0
Sizes: 128..10240 bytes. Emits PNGs with both lines plus a CSV.
