Massively optimize airflow-github script performance (96% faster) (apache#54292)

**Change Summary**:
- Use GitHub search API to batch-fetch PRs by status (merged/closed/open)
- Implement batch git operations replacing individual PR lookups
- Add caching for commit SHAs and cherry-pick detection
- Improve output clarity: rename 'MERGED' column to 'CHERRY'

**Performance improvements**:
- `--unmerged` mode: 73s → 2.9s (96% faster)
- Regular mode: 73s → 12.7s (83% faster)
- Eliminates O(n) git operations with O(1) cache lookups
