CSIT-992: Add libraries for optimized search
+ Place the libraries into resources/libraries/python/search/. + Except OptimizedTrexSearch in TrafficGenerator.py + Change traffic generator to support floats for duration and warmup. + Remove explicit type conversions where not needed. + Add robot keywords to performance_utils.robot + for calling the optimized search. + for reporting the resulting values. + for checking the minimal performance has been reached. + for running five second "Traffic should pass with no loss" after the search. - Add methodology documentation in subsequent Change. - Add simulator for testing algorithm correctness in a subsequent Change. - Add tests using the libraries in subsequent Change.
