Without this fix, the `InstrumentHandler...` middlewares get locked in
an endless loop in case of an invalid Collector, eating all the memory.

Essentially, just don't try to set a status code and send any error
message in the body once metrics gathering has succeeded. At that
point, the most likely reason for errors is anyway that the client has
disconnected, in which sending an error is moot. The other possible
reason for an error is a problem during metrics encoding. This is
unlikely to happen (it's a coding error here in client_golang in any
case), and if it is happening, the odds are we have already sent
something to the ResponseWriter, which means we cannot set a status
code anymore. The doc comment for HTTPErrorOnError now describes these
circumstances explicitly and recommends to set a logger to report that
kind of error.
This should fix the reason for the infamous `superfluous
response.WriteHeader call` message.

Flush is another of the methods that will call WriteHeader if it
hasn't happened yet. Since we want to call observeWriteHeader (if
set), we need to do the WriteHeader call already here, similar to what
we have done in Write and ReadFrom.
This commit also adds comments explaining the above to not tempt
developers to remove the WriteHeader call.

This allows us to simplify a bunch of code while still supporting the
last four Go minor versions.
We have also run into minor annoyances a couple of times by now to
keep supporting 1.7 and 1.8.
It's time to pull the plug!

In principle, we needed to iterate through all permutations, mirroring
the same that is happening in the code. For lack of time, I only
picked one of the cases currently buggy.
As said, this really needs code generation, should we ever find
ourselves touching this again.
Previously, the pickDelegator function was not returning a
*hijackerDelegator so the return value did not implement the Hijacker
interface. As a result, code that attempts to hijack the connection
would fail when using a type assertion.
All the other cases returned the hijackerDelegator correctly.
The idea behind it is described in detail in
https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/320 .
This commit also updates the example given in
promhttp/instrument_server_test.go , which nicely illustrates the
benefit of this change.
So far, currying could be emulated by creating different metric vec's
with different values in their ConstLabels. This was quite difficult
to grasp - which is essentially what was done in the example mentioned
above. Now that this use case can be solved without ConstLabels, we
can safely declare ConstLabels as rarely used. (Perhaps we can
deprecate them entirely one day, but I'll take a raincheck on that
when the changes of v0.10 have materialized.) This commit thus also
updates the ConstLabel doc comments in the various Opts. (It contained
fairly outdated stuff anyway.)
As it turned out, it's not that esay to guess "common" combination of
interface upgrades. So I decided to just implement all 32 possible
combination of interface upgrades. (Only 16 with Go 1.7 and earlier.)
Clearly, this calls for code generation. But right now, we still need
to find out what's the best form of the code. For later additions,
implementing code generation might be useful.
Note that newDelegator is called for each HTTP request. Thus, this
commit aims to make the upgrade selection quick. (After the type
checks, it's just directly accessing an element in a slice.)
This allows to finally get rid of the infamous injection hook in the
interface. The old SetMetricFamilyInjectionHook still exist as a
deprecated function but is now implemented with the new plumbing under
the hood.
Now that we have multiple Gatherer implementation, I renamed
push.Registry to push.FromGatherer.
This commit also improves the consistency checks, which happened as a
byproduct of the refactoring to allow checking in both the "merge
gatherer" Gatherers as well as in the normal Registry.
