chore: import memoryless from m-lab/go

The ndt7 server uses memoryless to avoid sampling the download speed
at constant intervals, which provides PASTA properties (where PASTA
means Poisson Arrivals See Time Averages.

In other words, ndt7 has a better download speed observation mechanism
than one that samples at fixed intervals because the observation is
independent of possibly cyclical events happening in the network that
could synchronize with the download speed polling period.

We want to have the same properties for measuring the download
speed inside of Web Connectivity LTE.

To this end, let us import the package m-lab uses for ndt7 server.
