Trending: New sensitive detection
This enables PAL to consider burst size and stdev
when detecting anomalies.
Currently added as a separate presentation_new directory,
so the previous detection is still available by default.
TODO: If the state with two detections persists for some time,
create a script for generating presentation_new/
(from presentation/) to simplify maintenance.
