random duration before start the evaluation, and during the sleep,
`g.updateCh <- new` will be blocked since there is no `<-g.updateCh`
waiting.

This makes test code more clear and reduces the number of code lines by 500.
This also simplifies debugging tests. See https://itnext.io/f-tests-as-a-replacement-for-table-driven-tests-in-go-8814a8b19e9e
While at it, consistently use t.Fatal* instead of t.Error* across tests, since t.Error*
requires more boilerplate code, which can result in additional bugs inside tests.
While t.Error* allows writing logging errors for the same, this doesn't simplify fixing
broken tests most of the time.
This is a follow-up for a9525da8a4
There was a sleep statement in the test, waiting for Group
to perform a couple of evaluation. But looks like
it worked unreliable for some CI tests like the one below

This commit changes the sleep statement on a function that
waits for a specific number of evaluations. It should make this
test faster in general case, and more reliable for slow environemnts.

Descriptions were updated in attempt to make it more clear for readers,
re-phrasing and linking missing docs.
`eval_delay` was added to tests to verify it can be unmarshalled.
`eval_delay` is now applied before timestamp alignment to make it more predictable.
Before, if delay < interval the timestamp won't be aligned.
`eval_delay` and `eval_offset` was added to API output.
`PreviouslySentSeriesToRW` converted to private `previouslySentSeriesToRW`.
