"automemcpy: A framework for automatic generation of fundamental memory operations"
https://research.google/pubs/pub50338/

This patch implements the concepts presented in the paper, the overall approach is the following:

- Makes use of constraint programming to model the implementation of a memory function (memcpy, memset, memcmp, bzero, bcmp).
- Generate the code for all valid implementations
- Compile the implementations and benchmark them on a set of machines. The benchmark makes use of representative distributions for the function's arguments.
- Analyze the result and pick "the best" performing function according to the specific environement.

This patch in particular implements the code that reads the result of the benchmark and produce an analysis of the performance of each autogenerated function.
