* adds datadog extensions for statsd:
- multiple packed values (v1.1)
- additional types distribution, histogram
* adds type check and append metric type to the labels with special tag
name `__statsd_metric_type__`. It simplifies streaming aggregation
config.

Allocations are reduced by implementing custom json parser via fastjson
lib.
The change also re-uses `promInstant` object in attempt to reduce number
of
allocations when parsing big responses, as usually happens with heavy
recording rules.
```
name old allocs/op new allocs/op delta
ParsePrometheusResponse/Instant-10 9.65k ± 0% 5.60k ± 0% ~ (p=1.000 n=1+1)
```

Allocations are reduced by re-using the byte buffer when converting
labels to string keys.
```
name old allocs/op new allocs/op delta
GetStaleSeries-10 703 ± 0% 203 ± 0% ~ (p=1.000 n=1+1)

it's needed to remove Summary metric type from the global state of
metrics package. metrics package tracks each bucket of summary and
periodically swaps old buckets with new.
Simple set unregister is not enough to release memory used by Set

Change the return values for these functions - now they return the unmarshaled result plus
the size of the unmarshaled result in bytes, so the caller could re-slice the src for further unmarshaling.
This improves performance of these functions in hot loops of VictoriaLogs a bit.
