The Go runtime/metrics package currently exports extremely granular
histograms. Exponentially bucket any histogram with unit "seconds"
or "bytes" instead to dramatically reduce the number of buckets, and
thus the number of metrics.
This change also adds a test to check for expected cardinality to
prevent cardinality surprises in the future.

This change introduces use of the runtime/metrics package in place of
runtime.MemStats for Go 1.17 or later. The runtime/metrics package was
introduced in Go 1.16, but not all the old metrics were accounted for
until 1.17.
The runtime/metrics package offers several advantages over using
runtime.MemStats:
* The list of metrics and their descriptions are machine-readable,
allowing new metrics to get added without any additional work.
* Detailed histogram-based metrics are now available, offering much
deeper insights into the Go runtime.
* The runtime/metrics API is significantly more efficient than
runtime.MemStats, even with the additional metrics added, because
it does not require any stop-the-world events.
That being said, integrating the package comes with some caveats, some
of which were discussed in #842. Namely:
* The old MemStats-based metrics need to continue working, so they're
exported under their old names backed by equivalent runtime/metrics
metrics.
* Earlier versions of Go need to continue working, so the old code
remains, but behind a build tag.
Finally, a few notes about the implementation:
* This change includes a whole bunch of refactoring to avoid significant
code duplication.
* This change adds a new histogram metric type specifically optimized
for runtime/metrics histograms. This type's methods also include
additional logic to deal with differences in bounds conventions.
* This change makes a whole bunch of decisions about how runtime/metrics
names are translated.
* This change adds a `go generate` script to generate a list of expected
runtime/metrics names for a given Go version for auditing. Users of
new versions of Go will transparently be allowed to use new metrics,
however.
