warnings: List of warnings from the bisect run.
state: BisectState object from which these results were generated.
first_working_revision: First good revision.
last_broken_revision: Last bad revision.
If both of above revisions are not None, the follow properties are present:
culprit_revisions: A list of revisions, which contain the bad change

other_regressions: A list of tuples representing other regressions, which
may have occured.
regression_size: For performance bisects, this is a relative change of
the mean metric value. For other bisects this field always contains
'zero-to-nonzero'.
regression_std_err: For performance bisects, it is a pooled standard error
for groups of good and bad runs. Not used for other bisects.
confidence: For performance bisects, it is a confidence that the good and
bad runs are distinct groups. Not used for non-performance bisects.
