This separates out people who are excluded from a test, from those who are in the control for the test. 50% of people always go to control, and 50% go into some experiment branch. People who aren't in either go into the 'exclude' category.

The selenium test is stalling out for me locally, but in a different way than the failing test here. We can just fix that async. Looks good; merging.

@ianb If I'm understanding this correctly, since 10% of the population is in the autoOpenSharePanel test, and another 10% is in the highlightButtonOnInstall test, and people in those tests are excluded from this myShotsDisplay test, then, 50% of the remaining total 80% of users will be in the control group in this test, while the other half will be 9:1 split between the 'intropopup' and 'blink' tests. Does that seem correct?
