This is a first step towards measuring the efficiency of the LRU caches
over time - metrics can be collected during import or when running
regulary.
Since `nim-metrics` carries some overhead for its default way of
reporting metrics, this PR implements a custom collector over atomic
counters, given that this is one of the hottest spots in the block
processing pipeline.
Using a compile-time flag, the same metrics can be printed on exit which
is useful when comparing different strategies for caching - here's a
recent run over blocks 16000001-1616384 - this is a good candidate to
expose in a better way in the future, maybe:
