New commands `list`, `status` and `info` and support interruption/resumption of trials
Pre-release
New commands
New commands list, status and info now enable simple monitoring and inspection of experiments. The command list prints out all the experiments' name so you can easily keep track of what is available in your database. The command status gives a summary of experiments' status, with number of trials in different status (completed, reserved, etc) and best objective found so far. Finally the command info prints out all details of a given experiment, command line used, search space, algorithm configuration and current statistics.
Trial interruption
So far interrupted trials would keep the status reserved and wouldn't be available for selection
again, so they would be lost somehow. They will now be set to interrupted and will be available
for resumption. If user's script does not support checkpointing internally, the process will simply be re-executed from scratch.
