Support for benchmarking memory usage, etc. #86

Description

This is definitely not in scope is hyperfine's goal is to be just a replacement for time, but the thing I most wish for when using time to benchmark programs is if it could measure other relevant program execution statistics, like memory usage. After all, optimization (which is what benchmarking is driving) is always about tradeoffs in some way. But it's kinda hard to know if you're making the right tradeoffs for your project if you're measuring only one thing (here, execution speed).

Would something measuring memory usage, etc. that be in scope for hyperfine a a benchmarking tool?
