We've received some community requests recently to implement an experiment that helps to detect throttling. Doing that properly is quite complex, to be honest. But I think having an initial instrument to figure out what happens will help informing a proper experiment for that. So, this commit creates an initial experiment to start thinking and reasoning out about this kind of problems.
Usage `./miniooni -O "DNSCache=domain 1.2.3.4" -i $URL download`
This gives us a better picture of how the download's doing.

- outline the current methodology; - explain its theoretical assumptions; - describe limitations; - mention possible future directions. Part of ooni/ooni.org#1406. Closes #684 because we've now gone full circle and we have infrastructure to setup a comparable experiment via richer input without the need of *implementing* a new experiment. --------- Co-authored-by: DecFox <33030671+DecFox@users.noreply.github.com>
