CPU utilization % in telemetry results is huge

Project Member Reported by bokan@chromium.org, Jan 3 2017

Issue description

The CPU utilization % appears to need a division by 100. See the attached screenshot. The graph axis is correctly labeled but the raw values in the columns are in the thousands.

Not sure if this is a problem with the benchmark itself or with the dashboard/results view.

I expect that this isn't a problem with results2; percentages don't really get scaled by ScalarSpans and you can see percentages that look perfectly reasonable in webm_other below.

I'm not sure where this metric comes from, but I'm fairly certain that there's some type of error in the metric itself.
Looks like this is the point in legacy code where this value is added:

Some suspicious multiplication happening above there. I wonder if this is a platform-specific bug.
