As part of commit #b3de85 porting to WA3, the behaviour of Enums changed
so that the attribute to be fetched is converted to lower case before
the lookup occurs. Due to the fact that 'names' is a predefined
attribute of the Enum class this clashes and will return the full list
of names instead of the individual entry. Update the test to use another
non reserved entry.
Remove unused ``platform`` attributes and add ``supported_platforms``
along with check so that workloads can fail early when attempting to run
on an incorrect platform.
Mongoperf currently has a non-ASCII character in the file that causes a failure.
This commit rewords the description to remove the incriminating character.
Add a workload that runs mongoperf benchmark that measures I/O
performance on a MongoDB server. This workload assumes that mongoperf
is already installed.
Consider headers when calculating column widths. This will ensure proper
alignment in cases where the column header is wider than any of the
column values.
When installing from source WA attempts to include the commit ID in the
version of the installed pacakge however this caused issues with package
managers like pip. PEP440 specifies that local identifiers must be in the
form `<public version identifier>[+<localversion label>]` so update the
version to conform.

Lengthen timeout for gemm and conv tests to be the same as for sparse
test. While the former two usually take a lot less time, their execution
time will vary significantly depending on the target and the runtime
environment (e.g. cpu frequencies might be forced to lowest values).
