Implements the functionality for clearing all statistics in the sample buffer
and the results struct by adding a API method that the user can call
while rttest is running.

Besides the questions inline, it would also be great to have tests for this new functionality.

this->sample_buffer.minor_pagefaults.begin(),
this->sample_buffer.minor_pagefaults.begin() + this->cleared_iteration + 1,

Why are we adding 1 here? Won't that always skip a sample somewhere along the way?

I could be wrong in my understanding here, but this isn't really "clearing" the results. What it is doing is setting a marker at the current set of samples, and then we'll only consider samples from this point forward.

If my understanding is correct, then I think we should rename this function to reflect that usage more. Maybe "mark_statistics" or something like that?
