Upstream suggests switching to criterion

[ChrisPenner]

I've gone ahead and just removed benchmarks (and gauge from lens-regex-pcre at 1.1.2.0 to maintain compatibility; I can rewrite them using criterion if I end up doing active development on that package again.

For most cases, it looks like you can just switch to tasty-bench by switching imports. See, eg, viercc/trie-simple#16
