Improve math benchmark infrastructure
Improve support for math function benchmarking. This patch adds a feature that allows accurate benchmarking of traces extracted from real workloads. This is done by iterating over all samples rather than repeating each sample many times (which completely ignores branch prediction and cache effects). A trace can be added to existing math function inputs via "## name: workload-<name>", followed by the trace. * benchtests/README: Describe workload feature. * benchtests/bench-skeleton.c (main): Add support for benchmarking traces from workloads.
