Serve Prometheus metrics behind SWWAF_METRICS_TOKEN (closes #23)
GET /_smallwebwaf/metrics answers in the Prometheus text format for a
request carrying SWWAF_METRICS_TOKEN, 401 without it and 404 while it is
unset. Every request under /_smallwebwaf/ but the health check now goes
through the checks and is answered where it would be forwarded, 404 for
any path but the metrics, so none reaches the app. In the client's
history a 401 counts as refused, the metrics and the 404s as neither.
SWWAF_METRICS_TOP_N bounds the series by country, the rest counted as
other.

Deviation: go.mod and go.sum written by hand, as go runs only through
make.
Deviation: no metrics yet for state files read again after an edit or
edits set aside; that work is not merged.
