Refactor jumpavg to be more readable and usable

This is the python3 change, the python2 is still used for testing bisect.

+ New version is 0.2.0 due to amount o API changes.
+ Jumpavg is now part of CSIT resource package tree.
+ Perpatch migrated to new jumpavg.
- PAL NOT updated (the update moved to a different Change).
