crosperf: Make results_report more general.

The goal of this patch is to allow us to use results_report to generate
non-ChromeOS-specific results reports. It's meant to be a nop for
regular crosperf runs (except that, in HTML report generation,
whitespace in the HTML itself will look a bit different.)

Moreover, results_report used to shuffle Experiments around, each of
which, unsurprisingly, contained *tons* of data about an experiment.
So, part of this patch was reducing results_report's reliance on
Experiments, in favor of a new type, BenchmarkResult.

Some parts of results_report still rely on Experiments, but only to
provide *extra* data. The minimum amount of data needed to make a
results report is contained in a BenchmarkResult, and there's a
convenient API we can use to make a BenchmarkResult out of an
Experiment.

This patch also does a massive refactor of results_report, because lots
of the code was mildly more icky than it is with this patch applied.
The refactor-for-prettiness and refactor-for-BenchmarkResults kind of
go hand-in-hand, so it's really hard to split them out. The only part
that's not so difficult to split out is the refactor to
results_report_templates, but the value of splitting that out is
questionable (to me).

Speaking of which, all HTML magicks that were in results_report is now
in results_report_templates, and now use *actual* Templates. It -- and
HTMLReportGenerator -- are hopefully more readable as a result.

Next, this makes JSONRsultsReport's GetReport() return a string
containing JSON data, rather than calling a callback to write
that string to a file.

Finally, this includes a change to perf_table. Namely, its removal. It
was otherwise unused, and I couldn't get it to even work, so I cleaned
it up, made a perf report parser (because I couldn't get the cros_utils
one to work, either...), and made sure it functions. If we're able to
produce perf reports that cros_utils can parse, I'm happy to back my
new parser out; I was primarily using it so I could be sure I didn't
break HTML report generation.
