For now - to get past this point - you could just implement an
action/command that is "monkey_results_to_json".

We can do the same for 0xbench output i guess to get going and then we
can review what kind of framewor support we want for this.

my understanding is that "attachment" should be used to "attach
additional information" ... the main results should be in the "main"
json part. basically "result" (boolean) and/or "measurement" (float)
from what i recall.

right. I think in first step this can be ignored. We can add this later.
