a8ea2a91a6 Use deferred execution for Sequence.map and Sequence.where
The methods Sequence.map and Sequence.where are now implemented using
deferred execution. They return an instance of a new Sequence-derived
class that performs the operation while iterating. This has three main
advantages:

* It can be computationally cheaper when not the whole sequence is
  iterated.

* It consumes less memory since it does not store the result in a newly
  allocated list.

* They can work on infinite sequences.

Some disadvantages are:

* Iterating the returned iterator will be slightly slower due to
  the added indirection.

* You should be aware that modifications made to the original sequence
  will affect the returned sequence.

* If you need the result in a list, you now need to call Sequence.list
  on the result.

This helper method turns any sequence into a List.

64eccdd9be Reorganize tests and benchmark scripts.
Mainly to get rid of one top level directory. But this will
also be useful when there are tests of the embedding API.
