These were copied from external benchmarks, and tweaked/simplified a
bit based on gained experience.
I mostly just wanted something to test the bench runner/scripts, with
bench_rbyd showcasing a low-level litmus benchmark, and bench_wt
showcasing a high-level throughput benchmark.
Though bench_wt has proven to be a _very_ versatile benchmark, and will
likely be the first stop for getting an understanding of high-level
performance implications.

Also added bench_helpers.h/c, which includes a couple helper functions:
- bench_helpers_warmup - Warm up the filesystem by writing a 1 block
file 2*block_count times. This is meant to exhaust any preerased
state, post-format lookahead buffers, etc.
- bench_helpers_usage - Find a tight bound on disk usage. This allocates
a bitmap to find the tight bound, unlike lfs3_fs_usage, which is
best-effort. However the bitmap is hidden behind BENCH_HEAP_PAUSE to
prevent messing with parallel heap measurements.
