Why this should be merged
The
metrics.Enabledglobal is misleadingly named and disables constructors, not individual metrics when they're used. This resulted in allava-labs/corethmetrics being no-ops because it was only set totrueafter they were all constructed. As the majority of metrics are globals, they're created during package initialisation so simply settingmetrics.Enabled = truesomewhere incorethisn't a guarantee of ordering. The oldcoreth/metricspackage simply set the global totrueby default.How this works
metrics.Enabled = trueat the point of declaration.How this was tested
Local inspection of metrics on a running binary.
