There isn't any immediate benefit to this, but it prepares the code for
use of shared memory for statistics.
Use the opportunity to switch accesses to these to relaxed memory order.

This has been broken for a while and nobody seems to be using it since
nobody complained. Remove it.

In the header files follow the rules:
1. Firstly goes ifndef/define construction, then one empty row.
2. Secondly go system headers, so in angle-brackets, then one empty row.
3. If there are important pre-processor definitions, which affect
the following custom file headers, they are added next, then one empty row.
4. Thirdly custom header files, so in double quotes,
then at least one empty row.
5. If there is "xt_RTPENGINE.h", it's mentioned next, but separately,
then one empty row.
6. Then pre-processor definitions, and one empty row before the code.
In some situations it's allowed to step aside from the rules,
when inclusions are dependent on each other, so on specific sequence,
and also possibly on some inline objects definitions.
But, if possible to follow the rules, it should be done.

Similarly as for the `stats_rate_min_max()`,
move the `stats_counters_calc_rate()` functionality
to the same separate thread, so that we do the work
more efficiently and not be dependent on the call_timer
runs by poller.
Furthermore it makes more sense to keep in the `statistics.c`,
since it obviously has to do with statistics.
Additionally:
Update the test-stats due to these changes in the `call_timer()`
We have to call the `stats_counters_calc_rate()` now explicitely from
the test-stats.c, because the `call_timer()` is not anymore
responsible for providing stats counters rate calculations.

To do the work more efficiently,
and not be dependent on the call_timer runs by poller,
we should move the `stats_rate_min_max()` to a separate thread,
to make it faster and not be dependent on what happens in the `call_timer` at all.
Since it has nothing to do with the call timers.

There's no point in sampling Graphite-specific stats, nor in reporting
them out, if Graphite is not enabled.

Distinguish between two different types of "gauge" type metrics: Actual
gauges which (at least conceptually) have a single continuous value, and
metrics which are comprised of discretely sampled values, possibly from
multiple sources.
Real gauges with continuous values don't have mean/average/deviation
values directly associated with them, as calculating these requires
sampling or some other analysis.
Sampled metrics on the other hand do have these associated values.
Clarify which function does what and where each value comes from.

Rename structs and variables to make it clear that these min/max values
are min/max per-sec rate values.
Carry mins and maxes separately from averages. This changes the meaning
of $command_ps_avg away from an "average of averages" to an actual
average, which is more accurate.
Calculate this average based on per-interval differences and interval
duration (stats_rate_min_max_avg_sample).
Side effect: As rtpe_latest_graphite_interval_start is now set in
print_graphite_data instead of in graphite_loop_run, the test now
reports a different "interval calls duration".

Perform accumulation of stats only once (i.e. increasing an actual
counter) and report stats based on differences to previous values,
instead of carrying multiple stats counters for each metric and
resetting each counter to zero whenever stats are reported.
`rtpe_stats` is the global master accumulator.
`_intv` variables are intermediate and local storage for values sampled
from `rtpe_stats` at regular intervals.
`_rate` and `_diff` variables hold stats calculated from `rtpe_stats`
and the respective `_intv` variable whenever the sampling and reporting
occurs.
`stats_counters_calc_diff` is used to calculate stats as differences
between `rtpe_stats` and the last sampled `_intv`
`stats_counters_calc_rate` does the same but calculates a per-second
rate, based on a microsecond duration.
Eliminate now-useless struct global_stats_ax

Keep a running lifetime total of all "gauge" type metrics. Also track
the square of the sums of all "gauge" type metrics in order to determine
the standard deviation.
