This PR adds an initial set of metrics for use ABCI. The initial metrics enable the calculation of timing histograms and call counts for each of the ABCI methods. The metrics are also labeled as either 'sync' or 'async' to determine if the method call was performed using ABCI's `*Async` methods.
An example of these metrics is included here for reference:

These metrics can easily be graphed using prometheus's `histogram_quantile(...)` method to pick out a particular quantile to graph or examine. I chose buckets that were somewhat of an estimate of expected range of times for ABCI operations. They start at .0001 seconds and range to 25 seconds. The hope is that this range captures enough possible times to be useful for us and operators.
The code in the Tendermint repository makes heavy use of import aliasing.
This is made necessary by our extensive reuse of common base package names, and
by repetition of similar names across different subdirectories.
Unfortunately we have not been very consistent about which packages we alias in
various circumstances, and the aliases we use vary. In the spirit of the advice
in the style guide and https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments#imports,
his change makes an effort to clean up and normalize import aliasing.
This change makes no API or behavioral changes. It is a pure cleanup intended
o help make the code more readable to developers (including myself) trying to
understand what is being imported where.
Only unexported names have been modified, and the changes were generated and
applied mechanically with gofmt -r and comby, respecting the lexical and
syntactic rules of Go. Even so, I did not fix every inconsistency. Where the
changes would be too disruptive, I left it alone.
The principles I followed in this cleanup are:
- Remove aliases that restate the package name.
- Remove aliases where the base package name is unambiguous.
- Move overly-terse abbreviations from the import to the usage site.
- Fix lexical issues (remove underscores, remove capitalization).
- Fix import groupings to more closely match the style guide.
- Group blank (side-effecting) imports and ensure they are commented.
- Add aliases to multiple imports with the same base package name.
We moved some files further down in the directory structure in #6964, which
caused the relative paths to the mockery wrapper to stop working.
There does not seem to be an obvious way to get the module root as a default
environment variable, so for now I just added the extra up-slashes.
