Performance tests: allow viewing and setting the random seed #226

This makes it much easier to verify whether a tested step is correct, as it will ensure all the results created can match between different runs. A good example is the interpreting step - using the same seed allows comparing the grade averages to verify correctness.

I'm curious about what bug you may have found to need such thing :wink:

I'm using it to check whether my interpreting refactor is working correctly, by looking at the average grade of all the modules. It won't work if I can't use the same seed to compare with master :smile:
