As the title

* Add a StatValue class in the backend to represent a stat.
* Add a singleton StatRegistry to maintain the collection of stats.
* For the sake of code neatness, we only support type of int and float, which can cover most of the scenarios.

Some big models can timeout on Windows CPU machine. I added some timeout properties.

This commit fixs the compiling bug regarding unique_ptr of IOptimizationProfile.

IOptimizationProfile has protected dtor and is controlled by TensorRT
internally. Application shouldn't delete the pointer of IOptimizationProfile.
