// Metric implementations must observe concurrency safety as reads of
// this metric may occur at any time, and any blocking occurs at the
// expense of total performance of rendering all registered
// metrics. Ideally, Metric implementations should support concurrent
// readers.
//
// While populating dto.Metric, it is the responsibility of the
// implementation to ensure validity of the Metric protobuf (like valid
// UTF-8 strings or syntactically valid metric and label names). It is
// recommended to sort labels lexicographically. (Implementers may find
// LabelPairSorter useful for that.) Callers of Write should still make
// sure of sorting if they depend on it.

// dto.Metric protobuf to save allocations has disappeared. The
// signature of this method should be changed to "Write() (*dto.Metric,
// error)".

// implementation XXX has its own XXXOpts type, but in most cases, it is just be
// an alias of this type (which might change when the requirement arises.)

// are optional and can safely be left at their zero value.

// with the same fully-qualified name must have the same label names in
// their ConstLabels.

// Note that in most cases, labels have a value that varies during the
// lifetime of a process. Those labels are usually managed with a metric
// vector collector (like CounterVec, GaugeVec, UntypedVec). ConstLabels
// serve only special purposes. One is for the special case where the
// value of a label does not change during the lifetime of a process,
// e.g. if the revision of the running binary is put into a
// label. Another, more advanced purpose is if more than one Collector
// needs to collect Metrics with the same fully-qualified name. In that
// case, those Metrics must differ in the values of their
// ConstLabels. See the Collector examples.
//
// If the value of a label never changes (not even between binaries),
// that label most likely should not be a label at all (but part of the
// metric name).
