Make percentile estimator configurable

We had quite a lot reports about the difference of the calculated percentiles between the Average Report and the HTML Report (Dashboard).

We might get rid of those differences, if we use the R_3 estimator from commons-math (https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-math/javadocs/api-3.5/org/apache/commons/math3/stat/descriptive/rank/Percentile.EstimationType.html)

As some people will probably want to stay on the current (LEGACY estimator) implementation, let us keep that and use a new property (yay) to select the estimator.

Forgotten to use the window size in the new tool class.
