// Package statsd implements a statsd backend for package metrics.
//
// The current implementation ignores fields. In the future, it would be good
// to have an implementation that accepted a set of predeclared field names at
// construction time, and used field values to produce delimiter-separated
// bucket (key) names. That is,
//
// c := NewFieldedCounter(..., "path", "status")
// c.Add(1) // "myprefix.unknown.unknown:1|c\n"
// c2 := c.With("path", "foo").With("status": "200")
// c2.Add(1) // "myprefix.foo.status:1|c\n"
//
