* allow exposing meta information for registered metrics
New public method `ExposeMetadata` allows enabling exposition
of dummy meta-info for all exposed metrics across all Sets.
This feature is needed to improve compatibility
with 3rd-party scrapers that require meta information to be present.
This commit doesn't update exposition of default system/process
metrics to keep the list of changes small. This change should
be added in a follow-up commit.
