A progress for test runs #31

From @tofutim, we should have a progress bar or some indication shown when tests are running for long running test suites.

Should this apply to all nunitlite tests? To the console runner as well?

I think it would be cool for the console runner and all NUnitLite tests as well. I always liked the curses style progress bar in mbunit's console runner. That said, I think it is more important in GUI runners like this where you want some visual indication that tests are running, even if it is a spinner. With the console, at least you know they have started running when you see the header information.

For GUI runners like this, another option might be to update the tests run number in the UI as the tests are running.
