Metrics on a thread and port of their own, from memory alone (#194)

/metrics shared the web server's threads, and answered after a token
lookup and three counting queries, so a pool run dry, one of the things it
is there to show, would have stalled it, and a slow scrape held a web
thread. Now [web] metrics_bind starts a listener on its own OS thread with
a current-thread runtime, reading only what is in memory: pool counts,
channel capacity, the daemon runtime's metrics through its handle, /proc.
No sign-in, as exporters have none; publish the port to the LAN only. The
feed, pending and downloaded counts stay with the healthcheck's log lines,
which the dashboard already reads.

It is plain HTTP. On a LAN bind everything crosses the network in the clear — and a feed URL can
itself carry a credential. Put TLS in front of it if that matters.
