benchmark: add plot_csv R graphing script

This commit adds a graphing script (in R) for graphing the CSV output
of a benchmark. It can be run like this:

```
$ OUTPUT_FORMAT=csv iojs benchmark/http/client-request-body.js >
data.csv
$ ./benchmark/plot_csv.R data.csv graph.png bytes type
```

This will graph the output to `graph.png`, using the output's `bytes`
value as X and the result value for each as Y. Output will be grouped
by `type`.

Running as the example yields a beautiful graph like this:

#!/usr/bin/env Rscript
# To use this to graph some benchmarks, install R (http://www.r-project.org/)
# and ggplot (http://ggplot2.org/).
#
# Once installed, you can generate some CSV output with a command like this:
#
# $ OUTPUT_FORMAT=csv iojs benchmark/http/client-request-body.js > data.csv
# $ ./benchmark/plot_csv.R data.csv data.png bytes type
#
# Where the 3rd argument to this script is the graph's X coordinate, the 4th is
# how the output is grouped, and the Y coordinate defaults to result.
