Currently, stress logs are named "/tmp/go-stress-" plus a random
number. This makes it really annoying to tease apart failures from
different stress runs.
This CL changes the default prefix to
"/tmp/go-stress-<ISO 8601 date/time>-<random number>"
where the date/time part is when the stress command started. This
naming clusters logs by stress invocation, making it easy to tease
apart invocations, even if there are multiple stresses running
concurrently or they are run back-to-back.
This also provides a flag to override this prefix.

Provide more context when you run `stress -h` besides just the flags.

This adds a flag for specifying a regular expression for failures that
should be ignored. This is useful for filtering out known issues and
provides a logical mirror to the existing -failure flag.

Currently at the end of a long stress run you may not know from the
end of the output whether there were any failures. Add a failure count
to the periodic status message to make this obvious.

The stress utility is intended for catching of episodic failures.
It runs a given process in parallel in a loop and collects any failures.
Usage:
$ stress ./fmt.test -test.run=TestSometing -test.cpu=10
You can also specify a number of parallel processes with -p flag;
instruct the utility to not kill hanged processes for gdb attach;
or specify the failure output you are looking for (if you want to
ignore some other episodic failures).
Do you find it useful?
I use it for several years for all kinds of episodic failures (not just Go btw).
