Wolfgang Walther 8a9f98371e nix(loadtest): group results by status, method and URL
Different requests hit different code paths and perform very
differently. By looking at each request type separately, we should be
able to get a much better idea of what kind of change in performance
we're looking at and where the root cause might be.

It will hopefully also allow us to migrate some of the other test-cases
into the main loadtest.
