BOT: Fix #1022: allow pairwise comparisons with two models

[nikosbosse]

Summary

• Fixes Let get_pairwise_comparison() run with two models? #1022: get_pairwise_comparisons() now warns instead of erroring when there are exactly 2 models with one as the baseline
• Changed cli_abort() to cli_warn() for the two-model-with-baseline case, allowing the function to proceed and compute the single score ratio
• Fixed the "compairisons" typo in the warning message
• The single-model case (truly insufficient comparators) still errors via pairwise_comparison_one_group()

Root cause

The check length(setdiff(comparators, baseline)) < 2 at line 161 of R/pairwise-comparisons.R called cli_abort(), blocking the legitimate use case of comparing 2 models where one is the baseline. While the pairwise comparison is just a single ratio in this case, it's still useful output.

What the fix does

• Adds !is.null(baseline) guard so the check only applies when a baseline is specified
• Changes cli_abort() to cli_warn() so the function proceeds with a warning
• Improves the warning message to be more informative

Test coverage added

• get_pairwise_comparisons() warns but works with two models and a baseline
• add_relative_skill() warns but works with two models and a baseline
• Two-model ratio is mathematically correct (deterministic test with known values)
• Single-model case still errors (regression test)
• Two models without baseline still works without warning (regression test)
• Updated existing expect_error to expect_warning for the two-model-with-baseline case

Test plan

• New tests pass
• Full test suite passes (695 tests, 0 failures)
• R CMD check: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 2 pre-existing notes

CLAUDE: Approving (posted as comment since self-approval is blocked). Clean, correct fix. The !is.null(baseline) guard is well-considered — it ensures the single-model-without-baseline case still errors downstream at pairwise_comparison_one_group(). All edge cases (1 model, 2 models with/without baseline) are handled correctly. The deterministic mathematical correctness test (Test 3) with known score ratios is excellent. Typo fix and improved warning message are appropriate. No issues found.
