Subject: [PATCH 1/5] fix(ci): exclude all samples from existing-versions-check

Update generation/check_existing_release_versions.sh to exclude all pom.xml
files that contain samples in their path, rather than just java-samples.

This ensures that java-<service>/samples/pom.xml modules (which are not released
and may remain as SNAPSHOTs) are excluded from the duplicate version check on
release PRs, preventing false positive failures.

Subject: [PATCH 2/5] fix(ci): exclude benchmarking, test-proxy, and
 shared-config parent from existing-versions-check

Update generation/check_existing_release_versions.sh to exclude:
- storage-shared-benchmarking
- test-proxy
- java-shared-config parent POM

These are non-released modules or parent POMs that should not be verified
for duplicate release versions.

Subject: [PATCH 3/5] fix(ci): refine test-proxy exclusion in
 existing-versions-check

Update generation/check_existing_release_versions.sh to use a more specific
path pattern *java-bigtable/test-proxy* instead of *test-proxy* to exclude the
bigtable test proxy.

This prevents accidental exclusions of other modules that might contain
'test-proxy' in their path.
