Change prometheus to not aggregate metrics and only export them. (#385)

* draft using stop aggregating on prometheus client (counters)

* remove prometheus client aggregations

Measures are being exported as summaries since histograms doesn't
exist on OpenTelemetry yet.

Better error handling must be done.

* make pre commit

* add simple error callback

* remove options from collector

* refactor exporter to smaller methods

* wording

* change to snapshot

* lock collection and checkpointset read

* remove histogram options and unexported fields from the Exporter

* documenting why prometheus uses a stateful batcher

* add todo for histograms

* change summaries objects to summary quantiles

* remove histogram buckets from tests

* wording

* rename 'lockedCheckpoint' to 'syncCheckpointSet'

* default summary quantiles should be defaulted to no buckets.

* add quantiles options

* refactor test.CheckpointSet and add docs

* flip aggregators merge
