 * @param {string} outputFile: path to write output to
 *
 * Runs a script for automated collection of performance data. The
 * script is defined as a Javascript module with specified contents.
 *
 * First the run() function within the module will be called as a
 * generator to automate a series of actions. These actions will
 * trigger performance events and the script can also record its
 * own performance events.
 *
 * Then the recorded event log is replayed using handler functions
 * within the module. The handler for the event 'foo.bar' is called
 * foo_bar().
 *
 * Finally if the module has a function called finish(), that will
 * be called.
 *
 * The event handler and finish functions are expected to fill in
 * metrics to an object within the module called METRICS. Each
 * property of this object represents an individual metric. The
 * name of the property is the name of the metric, the value
 * of the property is an object with the following properties:
 *
 *  description: human readable description of the metric
 *  units: a string representing the units of the metric. It has
 *   the form '<unit> <unit> ... / <unit> / <unit> ...'. Certain
 *   unit values are recognized: s, ms, us, B, KiB, MiB. Other
 *   values can appear but are uninterpreted. Examples 's',
 *   '/ s', 'frames', 'frames / s', 'MiB / s / frame'
 *  value: computed value of the metric
 *
 * The resulting metrics will be written to @outputFile as JSON, or,
 * if @outputFile is not provided, logged.
 *
 * After running the script and collecting statistics from the
 * event log, GNOME Shell will exit.
