Runner API request: custom OutputFormat

[Julien Nicoulaud]

Hi Aleksey,

I plan on writing an IntelliJ IDEA plugin for JMH, so getting results as
they come is what I'm trying to do.
Also, a more general use case is to print results to a logging system such
as SLF4J, and not directly replacing System.out.
