As we make our parser more compliant with the spec in the development branch, it would be nice if we had some rudimentary benchmarking capabilities. This would be useful for comparing any new parser implementations (e.g. what's currently in the spec-compliant branch) with what's currently in master. This would be so that we don't, say, make the new implementation an order of magnitude worse than what we currently have (a concern that was expressed [here](https://github.com/defunkt/pystache/pull/39#issuecomment-2897058), for example).

Ideally, the benchmark test would be both forward and backward compatible, so that we can, say, run the test against the implementation in the master branch though the benchmark script would reside in the development branch.
