Support unidirection in all searches
+ Rename bool unidirection to int traffic_directions. + Rename "untagged" to "initial" for bandwidth calculation. + Fix latency measurement for unidirectional traffic. + Remove duplicate colon in soak test message. + Edit PAL to accept both forms. + Fix minor documentation issues.
