This allows us to use -gocheck options for the whole codebase, for example to
run all tests in the codebase with the name matching "kernel" one can now do:
go test ./... -gocheck.f kernel
and that will only fail if the tests fail, whereas previously it would fail
because in these packages gocheck was not imported and as such -gocheck.f was
not recognized as an option and the help text for `go test` was printed off
instead of running any tests.
Eventually we may want to adapt the tests in these packages to use go-check too
so that these can also be filtered/run successfully with go test and gocheck
options.

Package progress had some useful formatting functions (originally
taken from github.com/chipaca/quantity), that are more generally
useful. Circular imports mean they can't be in strutil directly
(quantity uses i18n which uses strutil), but strutil/quantity seems
fine to me.
