Introduce Coefficient of variation aggregate (#1220)
* Introduce Coefficient of variation aggregate

I believe, it is much more useful / use to understand,
because it is already normalized by the mean,
so it is not affected by the duration of the benchmark,
unlike the standard deviation.

Example of real-world output:
```

* Be consistent, it's CV, not 'rel std dev'

Track two more details about runs - the aggregate name, and run name. (#675)
This is related to @BaaMeow's work in https://github.com/google/benchmark/pull/616 but is not based on it.

Two new fields are tracked, and dumped into JSON:
* If the run is an aggregate, the aggregate's name is stored.
  It can be RMS, BigO, mean, median, stddev, or any custom stat name.
* The aggregate-name-less run name is additionally stored.
  I.e. not some name of the benchmark function, but the actual
  name, but without the 'aggregate name' suffix.

This way one can group/filter all the runs,
and filter by the particular aggregate type.

I *might* need this for further tooling improvement.
Or maybe not.
But this is certainly worthwhile for custom tooling.

*Display* aggregates only. (#665)
There is a flag 
d9cab612e4/src/benchmark.cc (L75-L78)
and a call
d9cab612e4/include/benchmark/benchmark.h (L837-L840)
But that affects everything, every reporter, destination:
d9cab612e4/src/benchmark.cc (L316)


It would be quite useful to have an ability to be more picky.


More specifically, i would like to be able to only see the aggregates in the on-screen output,
but for the file output to still contain everything. The former is useful in case of a lot of repetition
(or even more so if every iteration is reported separately), while the former is **great** for tooling.
