config: Add soak test for memtest.py
This patch adds a random option to memtest.py which allows the user to easily test valid random tree topologies. The patch also adds a wrapper script to run soak tests using the newly introduced option. We also adjust the progress interval and progress limit check to make the output less noisy, and avoid false positives. Bring on the pain.
