How one can specify profiler's options?
Something like advance("jvmProfiler", "gc:churn=true") fails with:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: Parameter name and value format is required for advanced.

| **Notes on "jvmProfiler":** | ||
| - This option corresponds to the `-prof` command line option when running JMH benchmarks from console. | ||
| Some examples of possible values include `gc`, `stack`, `cl`, `perf`, and `dtraceasm`. |

Currently, for asm-annotating profilers (perfasm, dtraceasm, xctraceasm), users won't be able to obtain meaningful results if hsdis is not on the dynamic loader's library path.
On macOS, you can't put a library into /usr/lib and dyld won't load libraries from other locations (like /usr/local/lib) unless they are explicitly specified in DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH.
And it seems like we don't setup DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH for the runner's process (by copying its value from the parent process).
We may consider bypassing library path to the runner process or suggest users to build benchmark's JAR and use it directly, when perfasm profilers are needed.

Additionally, improve output format and include secondary results.
