Added a new 'samples_trunc_count' configuration attribute to the '[probe]' section that will cause the 'samples_trunc_count' number of highest and lowest samples to be removed and then the average of the remaining samples is returned. Signed-off-by: Nick Weedon <[email protected]>

Added a new
samples_trunc_countconfiguration attribute to the'[probe]'section that will cause thesamples_trunc_countnumber of highest and lowest samples to be removed and then the average of the remaining samples is returned.This feature is very useful when performing 5 samples or more since it will allow for the 'best of both worlds' with regard to using either median or mean (average) since it gives the converging benefit of mean while still being resistant to outliers like median.
This works particularly well when also combined with
samples_tolerance_retries.
