    qa/555 - more diags to try and track down failures

commit 36eaf683c6e4fe01e48ae32b43e03cf2bdcbc21b

    qa/753 - changes to improve test stability and determinism
    
    - use sample.colour instead of kernel.all.load
    - reset sample.colour before any tests are done
    - add diagnostics
    
    Previously, if the load average was updated (and changed) during
    the test, the results were non-deterministic.

    sample pmda - add pmStore support for some metrics
    
    These metrics share the same underlying (internal) counter:
        sample.colour
        sample.mirage
        sample.mirage_longlong
    
    pmStore into any of them will reset the underlying counter to the
    value supplied to pmStore.
    
    Useful for QA to reset the metrics and produce a deterministic sequence
    of values.

    qa/260 - improve determinism
    
    - up sample interval from 0.2sec to 0.5sec
    - use pmcd.pdu_in.fetch and pmcd.pdu_out.result instead of
      pmcd.pdu_in.total and pmcd.pdu_out.total
