Add benchmarking scripts

Browse source 
These scripts were originally written by horrors, and have since been
hacked up a lot by jade. We are putting them up as a CL since it is
better to have checked in benchmarking scripts than to not have
benchmarking scripts.

# Benchmarking scripts for Lix
These are very much WIP, and have a few clumsy assumptions that we would
somewhat rather be fixed, but we have committed them to let others be able to
do benchmarking in the mean time.
## Benchmarking procedure
Build some Lixes you want to compare, by whichever means you wish.
Get a computer that is not busy and *strongly preferably* is bare-metal or at
least not a cloud VM (e.g. go make coffee when running benchmarks).
From the root of a Lix checkout, run `./bench/bench.sh resultlink-one
resultlink-two`, where `resultlink-one` and `resultlink-two` are the result
links from the builds you want to test (they can be any directory with bin/nix
in it, however).
To get the summary again, run `./bench/summarize.jq bench/bench-*.json`.
## Example results
(vim tip: `:r !bench/summarize.jq bench/bench-*.json` to dump it directly into
your editor)
