Description

Metrics are useful in all classes, not only OSGi components, so getting the MetricsService should be as useful as getting a Logger for example.

I'll add a public MetricsServiceFactory class to our metrics module, usable like

  MetricsService ms = MetricsServiceFactory.getMetricsService(this.getClass());

There's already a private MetricsServiceFactory class in that module, I'll rename that to InternalMetricsServiceFactory to avoid confusion.
