- Mostly docstring fixed/additions.
(Please review these carefully, since most of them were missing, I
had to guess them from an outsider's perspective. (Which on the
other hand proves how desperately required many of these docstrings
are.))
- Removed all uses of new(...) to meet our own style guide (draft).
- Fixed all other 'go vet' and 'golint' issues (except those that are
not fixable (i.e. caused by bugs in or by design of 'go vet' and
'golint')).
- Some trivial refactorings, like reorder functions, minor renames, ...
- Some slightly less trivial refactoring, mostly to reduce code
duplication by embedding types instead of writing many explicit
forwarders.
- Cleaned up the interface structure a bit. (Most significant probably
the removal of the View-like methods from MetricPersistenc. Now they
are only in View and not duplicated anymore.)
- Removed dead code. (Probably not all of it, but it's a first
step...)
- Fixed a leftover in storage/metric/end_to_end_test.go (that made
some parts of the code never execute (incidentally, those parts
were broken (and I fixed them, too))).

This commit is the first of several and should not be regarded as the
desired end state for these cleanups. What this one does it, however,
is wrap the query index writing behind an interface type that can be
injected into the storage stack and have its lifecycle managed
separately as needed. It also would mean we can swap out underlying
implementations to support remote indexing, buffering, no-op indexing
very easily.
In the future, most of the individual index interface members in the
tiered storage will go away in favor of agents that can query and
resolve what they need from the datastore without the user knowing
how and why they work.
