PR #476 - Metrics refactor (@magiconair @nathanejohnson)

This is a large change. All previously supported metrics backends
are still supported, however this is a complete rewrite of the functionality
moving over to the gokit framework for implementations. In addition
to all previously supported metrics backends (circonus, graphite, statsd),
prometheus support has been added, as well as dogstatsd, have been added,
with full tagging support. Unfortunately some backwards compatibility
with graphite histograms does not work, due to the way gokit handles
these. Statsd support has changed as well, but it was horribly broken
in that counters never reset like they were supposed to. Overall, the
improvements should outweigh the negatives of backwards compatibility for
most people.
