Fix use of trailing dots on metric names in telemetry.mdx 

In the metric documentation, some metrics are written with an extra
trailing dot character. Often this is just spurious. In some cases, it
is an allusion to the metric name having various variable dot-separated
parts (which really ought to be labels, but that's another issue).

1) Trim all the dots which are without meaning.

2) Explicitly show with placeholders in angle brackets, where there are
   variable parts.

3) Remove a `json` type indicator from a code block which was not JSON
   (rather Prometheus metrics) format, since my IDE was reporting the
   non-JSON syntax as an error.

4) Reformat each Markdown table which I had touched with other changes
   to have consistent column spacing in the source representation. As
   a result, this PR has a lot of whitespace changes, so please make use
   of GitHub's "ignore whitespace" checkbox in the PR diff viewer.

Let me know if you would prefer:

- to not accept the table spacing reformat in the same PR as other
  changes

- to not accept the table spacing reformat ever

- to have all tables in the file reformatted, not just ones touched with
  other changes

Each sample outputs what the capacity would be if future batched log write operations were similar to this one. This similarity encompasses 4 things: batch size, byte size, disk performance and boltdb performance. While none of these will be static and its highly likely individual samples of this metric will vary, aggregating this metric over a larger time window should provide a decent picture into how this BoltDB store can perform | logs/second | sample |
| `consul.raft.commitNumLogs` | Measures the count of logs processed for application to the FSM in a single batch. | logs | gauge |

| `consul.raft.leader.lastContact` | Measures the time since the leader was last able to contact the follower nodes when checking its leader lease. It can be used as a measure for how stable the Raft timing is and how close the leader is to timing out its lease.The lease timeout is 500 ms times the [`raft_multiplier` configuration](/docs/agent/config/config-files#raft_multiplier), so this telemetry value should not be getting close to that configured value, otherwise the Raft timing is marginal and might need to be tuned, or more powerful servers might be needed. See the [Server Performance](/docs/install/performance) guide for more details. | ms | timer |

| `consul.raft.leader.lastContact` | Measures the time since the leader was last able to contact the follower nodes when checking its leader lease. It can be used as a measure for how stable the Raft timing is and how close the leader is to timing out its lease.The lease timeout is 500 ms times the [`raft_multiplier` configuration](/docs/agent/config/config-files#raft_multiplier), so this telemetry value should not be getting close to that configured value, otherwise the Raft timing is marginal and might need to be tuned, or more powerful servers might be needed. See the [Server Performance](/docs/install/performance) guide for more details. | ms | timer |
| `consul.raft.leader.oldestLogAge` | The number of milliseconds since the _oldest_ log in the leader's log store was written. This can be important for replication health where write rate is high and the snapshot is large as followers may be unable to recover from a restart if restoring takes longer than the minimum value for the current leader. Compare this with `consul.raft.fsm.lastRestoreDuration` and `consul.raft.rpc.installSnapshot` to monitor. In normal usage this gauge value will grow linearly over time until a snapshot completes on the leader and the log is truncated. Note: this metric won't be emitted until the leader writes a snapshot. After an upgrade to Consul 1.10.0 it won't be emitted until the oldest log was written after the upgrade. | ms | gauge |

| Metric | Description | Unit | Type |
| ------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- | ------- |
| `consul.memberlist.degraded.probe` | Counts the number of times the agent has performed failure detection on another agent at a slower probe rate. The agent uses its own health metric as an indicator to perform this action. (If its health score is low, means that the node is healthy, and vice versa.) | probes / interval | counter |
| `consul.memberlist.degraded.timeout` | Counts the number of times an agent was marked as a dead node, whilst not getting enough confirmations from a randomly selected list of agent nodes in an agent's membership. | occurrence / interval | counter |
| `consul.memberlist.msg.dead` | Counts the number of times an agent has marked another agent to be a dead node. | messages / interval | counter |
| `consul.memberlist.health.score` | Describes a node's perception of its own health based on how well it is meeting the soft real-time requirements of the protocol. This metric ranges from 0 to 8, where 0 indicates "totally healthy". This health score is used to scale the time between outgoing probes, and higher scores translate into longer probing intervals. For more details see section IV of the Lifeguard paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1707.00788.pdf | score | gauge |
| `consul.memberlist.msg.suspect` | Increments when an agent suspects another as failed when executing random probes as part of the gossip protocol. These can be an indicator of overloaded agents, network problems, or configuration errors where agents can not connect to each other on the [required ports](/docs/agent/config/config-files#ports). | suspect messages received / interval | counter |
| `consul.memberlist.tcp.accept` | Counts the number of times an agent has accepted an incoming TCP stream connection. | connections accepted / interval | counter |

| `consul.memberlist.pushPullNode` | Measures the number of agents that have exchanged state with this agent. | nodes / Interval | counter |
| `consul.serf.member.failed` | Increments when an agent is marked dead.

| `consul.serf.member.flap` | Available in Consul 0.7 and later, this increments when an agent is marked dead and then recovers within a short time period. This can be an indicator of overloaded agents, network problems, or configuration errors where agents cannot connect to each other on the [required ports](/docs/agent/config/config-files#ports). | flaps / interval | counter |
| `consul.serf.member.join` | Increments when an agent joins the cluster. If an agent flapped or failed this counter also increments when it re-joins. | joins / interval | counter |
| `consul.serf.member.left` | Increments when an agent leaves the cluster. | leaves / interval | counter |
| `consul.serf.events` | Increments when an agent processes an [event](/commands/event). Consul uses events internally so there may be additional events showing in telemetry. There are also a per-event counters emitted as `consul.serf.events.`. | events / interval | counter |
| `consul.serf.msgs.sent` | This metric is sample of the number of bytes of messages broadcast to the cluster. In a given time interval, the sum of this metric is the total number of bytes sent and the count is the number of messages sent. | message bytes / interval | counter |
| `consul.autopilot.failure_tolerance` | Tracks the number of voting servers that the cluster can lose while continuing to function. | servers | gauge |
| `consul.autopilot.healthy` | Tracks the overall health of the local server cluster. If all servers are considered healthy by Autopilot, this will be set to 1. If any are unhealthy, this will be 0. | boolean | gauge |
