Avoid unnecessary time series emitted for stream protocol
The stream protocol cannot observe message sizes.
This commit ensures that the following time series are omitted:
```
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="64"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="256"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="1024"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="4096"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="16384"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="65536"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="262144"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="1048576"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="4194304"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="16777216"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="67108864"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="268435456"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket{protocol="stream",le="+Inf"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_count{protocol="stream"} 0
rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_sum{protocol="stream"} 0
```
This reduces the number of time series by 15.
2.
Further reduce the number of time series by reducing the number of
buckets. Instead of 13 bucktes, emit only 9 buckets. Buckets are not
free, each is an extra time series stored.
Prior to this commit:
```
curl -s -u guest:guest localhost:15692/metrics | ag message_size | wc -l
92
```
After this commit:
```
curl -s -u guest:guest localhost:15692/metrics | ag message_size | wc -l
57
```
3.
The emitted metric should be called
`rabbitmq_message_size_bytes_bucket` instead of `rabbitmq_global_message_size_bytes_bucket`.
The latter is poor naming. There is no need to use `global` in
the metric name given that this metric doesn't exist in the old flawed
aggregated metrics.
4.
This commit simplies module `rabbit_global_counters`.
5.
Avoid garbage collecting the 10-elements list of buckets per message
being received.

The dashboard on https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/10991-rabbitmq-overview/ has not been updated yet, but the metric works well - I was able to put together a visualization like this:
