Add an option to change multiple replicate OptQuest results to use median instead of average

Add an option to change multiple replicate OptQuest results to use median instead of average

Currently, when OptQuest runs with multiple replicates per solution enabled, the results that are plotted and exported to CSV are the average of the replicate values. It would be very useful if there was an option under the Advanced settings to use median instead of average. That way, the results wouldn't be skewed by a small number of really large or small values in the replicates. I am working with a model that would greatly benefit from using median in the OptQuest results.

The replication box plots shown in the Experimenter results use median, so it would be more consistent to default to median in the multiple replicate OptQuest results.
