Based on the d3 javascript library (https://d3js.org), treemap.py
renders heirarchical data as ascii art:
$ ./scripts/treemap.py lfs.code.csv \
-bfunction -fsize --chars=asdf -W60 -H8
total 65454, avg 369 +-366.8σ, min 3, max 4990

(Normally this is also colored, but you know.)
I've been playing around with d3 to try to better visualize code costs
in littlefs, and it's been quite neat. I figured it would be useful to
directly integrate a similar treemap renderer into our result scripts.
That being said, this ascii rendering is probably too difficult to parse
for any non-trivial data. I'm also working on an svg-based renderer, so
treemap.py is really just for in-terminal previews and an exercise to
understand the underlying algorithms, similar to plot.py/plotmpl.py.
