I intentionally left out the Makefile infrastructure that we had
previously for this, as it's not strictly needed and adds
complexity/maintenance burden.
This change adds two new collectors to the prometheus package which
export metrics about a given or the current process.
* ProcessCollector exports metrics about cpu time, vss, rss, fd usage as
well as the start time of a given process.
* GoCollector exports currently only the number of active goroutines.
This is still from my own fork as there are still critical PRs that
bmizerany hasn't responded to yet.

- Change Fingerprints to be simple uint64s.
- Deal sensibly with missing metric names.
- Enable finer-grained time resolution.
Merge this concurrently with the merge of the new storage backend into
prometheus/prometheus.

computeApproximateRequestSize is run in a goroutine, but the
handlerFunc that runs in parallel may modify the URL, which is also
needed by computeApproximateRequestSize. So get the URL length
beforehand.

Also, remove quotes from the Content-type header. It's not illegal to
have quotes there, but they are not needed, and at other places, we
are not using them. So fewer characters and more consistency.

Since we prepare the whole content in a buf before sending, we can as
well set the Content-Length explicitly.

This is actually the intended behavior, and (as a nice side effect)
makes things cheaper to calculate.
Also, introduce a separator character to avoid hash collisions
(like label values {"ab","c"} vs {"a", "bc"}).
Apply the same principles to signature.go.

Also, fix seconds to microseconds fot the http instrumentation to
match the metric name.
Fix Desc.String().
Simplify http error display.

This rewrite had may backs and forths. In my git repository, it
consists of 35 commits which I cannot group or merge into reasonable
review buckets. Gerrit breaks fundamental git semantics, so I have to
squash the 35 commits into one for the review.
I'll push this not with refs/for/master, but with refs/for/next so
that we can transition after submission in a controlled fashion.
For the review, I recommend to start with looking at godoc and in
particular the many examples. After that, continue with a line-by-line
detailed review. (The big picture is hopefully as expected after
wrapping up the discussion earlier.)

Most important here is the simple & flat text format, but while I'm on
it, I have also added the text representations for protobufs (which is
purely meant for debugging purposes). I hope my basic idea about
handling those various protocols (and the text package) becomes
clearer now.

The LabelsToSignature function is now used outside of the prometheus
package, too. Leaving it in the prometheuos package is misleading
design and will lead to circulat import chains soon.

- Full support for UNTYPED type.
- Receptive support for timestamp_ms (i.e. the processor can process
it, but the client library cannot yet create it - which is kind of
intended as timestamps are meant for other things like federation,
which will need separate support anyway).

The idea here is to always go via the protobufs if dealing with the
text format. That won't always be the most efficient way, but it
avoids the multiplicity of conversion routines required for direct
conversion (e.g. text format -> internal representation in the
Prometheus server). The loss of efficiency is acceptable because the
text format should not be used in high performance (high throughput,
low latency) situations anyway.
In that way, the text format stays perfectly isolated from other parts
of the code. To receive text format, just plug the conversion in
before the code path that normally reads protobufs. Correspondingly,
for sending text format, simply replace the WriteDelimited call by a
text.Create call.
Nevertheless, the conversion code itself is optimized for efficiency
and minimized memory churn (which was one of the reason for handcoding
the parser and not using a lexer/parser code generation tool).

These are all simple changes we should have caught a long time ago:
1. The hashing mechanism for fingerprint label sets should have not
allocated new objects for the actual hashing---at least not
egregiously. This simplifies the hash writing by just byte-
dumping the string stream into the hasher.
2. The hashing mechanism within the scope of a metric does not care
about the value of the label keys themselves but only of the label
values. The keys can be dropped from the calculation.
3. The locking mechanism for the metrics should not block on hash
computation but rather solely on the actual mutation or critical
section reads.
4. For scalar metrics (i.e., ones with niladic label signatures), we
should rely on a preallocated map versus requesting a new one
ad hoc.
This is tested with Go 1.1, so the results may yield other values
for us elsewhere:

In effect, a single metric mutation operation's lookup overhead will
move from Before::iBenchmarkLabelToSignature to
After::BenchmarkLabelValuesToSignature. This MINIMALLY reduces
1/2 the overhead. I would be hesitant in reading the memory
allocation statistics, for this was run with the GC still on and
thusly inaccurate per Go benchmarking documentation.
Before::BenchmarkLabelValuesToSignature never existed, so it is not
of any intrinsic value in itself. That said, the cases that still
rely on LabelToSignature experience consistently a 1/2 drop in time.
