Poll getMemoryLoad() (introduced by bitcoin/bitcoin#33922) once a minute and log the result.

Skipped for older node versions that don't have this method.

I'm running this locally for a while, logging once every 10 seconds instead of every minute.

Testing against a mainnet node with the default 300 MiB -maxmempool, polling it aggressively from the TP with -sv2interval=1 -sv2feedelta=1. It may take a while to get interesting results because its mempool started empty.

Rebased after #64 and #66.

The second commit generates plots like this:

getmemoryload-scatter

I'll leave it running for a bit longer.

Add Python script to make plots.
