Description: stress-ng package description is incorrect and misleading. stress-ng is NOT a benchmarking tool (the author event states this explicitly in the manual). stress-ng is a tool to load and stress a computer system.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
stress-ng 0.02.27-2
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
Look at the package description https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/stress-ng/ and see that the desciption states:

"a benchmark tool. stress-ng will stress test a computer system in various selectable ways"

It is not a benchmark tool. It is a stress tool.

Also, the version is out of date, the latest upstream version is V0.03.05

Thanks, Colin King
