tests: Add framework for comparative benchmarking. Motivation is optimizing handling of various constructs as well as understanding which constructs are more efficient in MicroPython. More info: http://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=77 Results are wildly unexpected. For example, "optimization" of range iteration into while loop makes it twice as slow. Generally, the more bytecodes, the slower the code. 11 years ago			`import bench`
