* fix bad assertions

* fix copy paste error on windows

* Fix thread safety annotations

* Make null-log thread safe

* remove remaining globals

* use chrono for walltime since it is thread safe

* consolidate timer functions

* Add missing ctime include

* Rename to be consistent with Google style

* Format patch using clang-format

* attempt to fix mingw build

* Attempt to make mingw work again

* Revert old mingw workaround

* Drastically improve OS X measurements

* Use average real time instead of max

* Fixture: add non const Setup() and TearDown().

This allows write-access to the State variable, which is important in
upcoming user-defined counter functionality.

* Fix const placement in the Fixture methods.

* Fixture: use const_cast instead of static_cast.

cmake does not require this, but IDEs such as VisualStudio or QtCreator
need this to add the headers to the generated project.

* reflow comment

* Add BENCHMARK_USE_LIBCXX option.

* Add comments

* re-add zero null pointer warning

In the `Ranges(...)` generation code a "control" vector which stores
the current index for each range passed to `Ranges`. Previously this vector
was incorrectly initialized to the size of the subranges not the number
of subranges.

Additionally this patch suppresses unused warnings generated by
`stream_init_anchor`.

The benchmark library internals write to std::cout/std::cerr during program
startup. This can cause segfaults when the user doesn't include <iostream> in
the benchmark (which init's the streams). This patch fixes this by emitting
a dynamic initializer in every TU which initializes the streams.

The plain MinGW enviroment does not provide any threading supporting, including
in the C++ STL. The MinGW-w64 enviroment does not have this problem.

This patch removes the 32 bit bot since it's always going to fail.

See https://github.com/google/benchmark/issues/272

This patch adds the compare_bench.py utility which can be used to compare the result of benchmarks.
The program is invoked like:

$ compare_bench.py <old-benchmark> <new-benchmark> [benchmark options]...
Where <old-benchmark> and <new-benchmark> either specify a benchmark executable file, or a JSON output file. The type of the input file is automatically detected. If a benchmark executable is specified then the benchmark is run to obtain the results. Otherwise the results are simply loaded from the output file.

Currently out Appveyor CI downloads and stashes a custom MinGW installation.
However the builder already provides both 64 and 32 bit installations of MinGW.
This patch changes our CI to use those instead.

I'm hoping this will fix issues where the g++ is broken due to the Appveyor
package caching semantics.

Currently the Appveyor bot is a PIT. It never passes and it often hangs
or gives very poor output. This patch rewrites the configuration.

This patch also attempts to fix a flaky complexity test as a drive-by.

This patch adds three new build configurations to the travis CI.

* Clang 3.8 w/ libc++
* Clang 3.8 w/ libc++, UBSAN, ASAN
* Clang 3.8 w/ libc++, MSAN

This patch adds new builders that test against GCC 6 and Clang 3.8 respectivly.
They also enable both address and undefined sanitizer. MSAN currently won't work
since it requires a sanitized STL.

Previously the FittingCurve functions for n^2 and n^3 did the calculation
using int types. This can overflow and cause UB. This patch changes the
calculations to use std::pow to prevent this.

Also re-enable VC 2013 appveyor bot since I *hope* this is what was causing
the failures.

This is secretly just a test commit to get appveyor to run again.

VC 2013 injects valid when  assigning an initializer list to std::set.
This attempts to work around this issue by using std::set's constructors
instead of the assignment operators.

* Support multiple ranges in the benchmark

google-benchmark library allows to provide up to two ranges to the
benchmark method (range_x and range_y). However, in many cases it's not
sufficient. The patch introduces multi-range features, so user can easily
define multiple ranges by passing a vector of integers, and access values
through the method range(i).

* Remove redundant API

Functions State::range_x() and State::range_y() have been removed. They should
be replaced by State::range(0) and State::range(1).
Functions Benchmark::ArgPair() and Benchmark::RangePair() have been removed.
They should be replaced by Benchmark::Args() and Benchmark::Ranges().

* Add RegisterBenchmark

* fix test inputs

* fix UB caused by unitialized value

* Add RegisterBenchmark

* fix test inputs

* fix UB caused by unitialized value

* Work around GCC 4.6/4.7/4.8 bug

These options allow you to write the output of a benchmark to the specified
file and with the specified format. The goal of this change is to help support
tooling.
