Perf variants have a staticly defined underlying host type, that is that the underlying host will not change it specifications unexpectedly which would result in a lot of perf regressions or improvements.
Currently a large number of cppsuite taks run on non perf variants but upload perf data regardless. This results in change points being generated that do not have causing commit but rather a variant's host changed unexpected.
We should update all cppsuite tasks to not create perf data unless specified.
