Description

Some tests are flaky because of minimal data size differences, e.g., one byte. However, many times we do not actually care about these differences. One example is default_constraint.q.

Patch adds the possibility to mask 1) printing of stats selectively on q files by adding the -- MASK_STATS option, and 2) printing of data size stats selectively on q files by adding the -- MASK_DATA_SIZE option.
