The new `arti-bench` crate does a simple end-to-end benchmark test
embedding Arti: it generates some random data (of configurable amount,
depending on command-line parameters), and then sends said data back and
forth via Arti (which should be configured to use a local Chutney
network).
Additionally, the benchmark can also be run via a local SOCKS5 server
(in order to benchmark the performance via a local Chutney node, for
comparison).
The `tests/chutney/arti-bench.sh` sets up and tears down Chutney as
required to make this work.
This is very much a first cut; there are many things that should
eventually get added, such as support for multiple connections, JSON
output capabilities, running multiple tests, ...
If the user has CHUTNEY_PATH set, respect that value, rather than
cloning a local chutney.
Also, if we have a local chutney, then update it in case there have
been changes.
