Ability to display intermediate result while the test is running #1315

Description

@sniku

This is a suggestion for the k6 process to listen to user input and react to commands while the test is running.

Feature Description

Specifically, I would like to be able to press R and to get intermediate results while my test is running. This is especially useful for long-running soak tests, that can take several hours to complete.

Currently, it's possible to get intermediate results by running a k6 stats command in another terminal window. This is however not ideal because the format is not human readable.

I suggest the intermediate result to have the same format as the regular end-of-test output k6 normally generates.
