Enhance Design to Parse and Display Different Types of Perf Jobs (i.e. Java, Nodejs & Others)

[piyush286]

Problem Description

I feel that our current style for handling different perf jobs (i.e. java, nodejs and others) can be improved. So far, we were mainly concerned about the performance of Java builds. Hence, we had jdkDate and javaVersion in the database.

In order to handle the performance of Nodejs builds, we are currently adding these new entries to database: nodeRunDate and nodeVersion in https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/openjdk-test-tools/pull/160. Adding more entries makes the code confusing and a bit redundant since we would be storing 4 entries even though only 2 would be used always. We don't care about the Nodejs version when we do java testing. Similarly, we don't care about java version when we do nodejs testing. Hence, it's not a good design to store all variables together: jdkDate, javaVersion, nodeRunDate and nodeVersion, something that might increase and make the code more confusing.

Proposed Changes

Maybe we should add just one entry perfType, which could be set to java, nodejs or any other in future. We should update jdkDate and javaVersion to productDate and productVersion or something along those lines.
