In order to comply with linting rules used in the rest of the code base,
eliminate redeclared variables. A conservative approach is used so as to
avoid unintentional performance issues (for example, as might be seen in
some situations when using `let` instead of `var`).

Before this commit, only benchmark targets defined in Makefile could
be used. This commit allows execution of common.js directly and
passing of filter arguments directly, allowing you to run either a
subset of benchmarks or a single specific benchmark for comparison.

The benchmark compare would drop the last run of the binary pairs. So
when they were only run once an error would arise because no data was
generated for the second binary.
This will run the benchmarks the number of times specified by NODE_BENCH_RUNS,
to attempt to reduce variability.
If the number of runs is high enough, it'll also throw out the top and bottom
quartiles, since that's where the outliers will be.
It's not very fancy statistics-fu, but it's better than nothing.
Also, linted this file. It had tabs in it. TABS!
