William Banfield b92a19b2ce proxy: add initial set of abci metrics (port of #7115) (#9169)
* internal/proxy: add initial set of abci metrics (#7115)

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:
```
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_bucket{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync",le="0.0001"} 0
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_bucket{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync",le="0.0004"} 5
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_bucket{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync",le="0.002"} 12
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_bucket{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync",le="0.009"} 13
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_bucket{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync",le="0.02"} 13
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_bucket{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync",le="0.1"} 13

tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_bucket{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync",le="2"} 13
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_bucket{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync",le="6"} 13
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_bucket{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync",le="25"} 13
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_bucket{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync",le="+Inf"} 13
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_sum{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync"} 0.007802058000000001
tendermint_abci_connection_method_timing_count{chain_id="ci",method="commit",type="sync"} 13
```

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.

Tendermint

Welcome to the Tendermint Core documentation!

Tendermint Core is a blockchain application platform; it provides the equivalent of a web-server, database, and supporting libraries for blockchain applications written in any programming language. Like a web-server serving web applications, Tendermint serves blockchain applications.

More formally, Tendermint Core performs Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) State Machine Replication (SMR) for arbitrary deterministic, finite state machines. For more background, see What is Tendermint?.

To get started quickly with an example application, see the quick start guide.

To learn about application development on Tendermint, see the Application Blockchain Interface.

For more details on using Tendermint, see the respective documentation for Tendermint Core, benchmarking and monitoring, and network deployments.

To find out about the Tendermint ecosystem you can go here. If you are a project that is using Tendermint you are welcome to make a PR to add your project to the list.
