xena_cont_accuracy_fix: Xena continuous traffic accuracy fixes
Second patch to help improve Xena continuous traffic accuracy. Increases delay before gathering statistics to allow packets in flight to be received. Changes bps and fps to be calculated based on total bytes and packets received versus capturing the data while port is transmitting from active statistics. Sets time limit on ports based on duration.
