NAT44ed: Add pure throuhput bidir tests

+ With ramp-up, without reset, with session verification.
+ Uses the same profile as pps tests.
+ Ramp up duration is not specified, as duration is computed.
+ Timeout tracking with automated ramp-up.
 + Correct computation of next duration.
 + Checking both early and late sessions.
 + No loss measurement also acts as a ramp-up.
+ Return ReceiveRateMeasurement from send_traffic_on_tg_internal,
  as that is needed for detecting whether trial is ok as ramp up.
- Udp needs quite low ramp-up rate after recent regression.
 - Max scale has higher rate (so failing) to avoid session timeouts.
+ Bump copyright year.

+| ... | *[Top] Network Topologies:* TG-DUT1-TG 2-node circular topology\

+| ... | *[Enc] Packet Encapsulations:* Eth-IPv4-TCP for IPv4 routing.
+| ... | *[Cfg] DUT configuration:* DUT1 is configured with IPv4\
+| ... | routing and two static IPv4 /24 route entries. DUT1 tested with\
+| ... | ${nic_name}.
+| ... | *[Ver] TG verification:* TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop\
+| ... | Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance and throughput PDR (Partial Drop\
+| ... | Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage\
+| ... | of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different\
+| ... | Ethernet L2 frame sizes using MLRsearch library.\
+| ... | Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile\
+| ... | contains client and server ASTF programs, generating packets containing\
+| ... | Ethernet header, IPv4 header, TCP header and static payload.\
+| ... | MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces.
+| ... | *[Ref] Applicable standard specifications:* RFC2544.
