Add some of the metrics mentioned in #718

use single static initialization of available metrics monitor registries

* This changes the original implementation to work in a similar way to
how slf4j selects and loads an implementation.
* Uses a single static instance so intialization is done only once.
* Doesn't throw IllegalStateException if multiple implementations are
found on the classpath. It instead selects and uses the first
implementation returned by iterator()
* Class left as an iterable to keep the API the same

add yammer metrics to examples to allow them to publish metrics

publish the number of threads used in an EventLoopGroup see issue #718

* seems like the better place to put this because it sets the default
thread count if the MultithreadEventLoopGroup uses super(0,...)
* It also happens to be the common parent class amongst all the
MultiThreadedEventLoopGroup implementations
* Count is reported for
io.netty.channel.{*,.local,.socket.aio,.socket.nio}

Give a handler more control over how its buffers' read bytes are discarded.

This pull request adds two new handler methods: discardInboundReadBytes(ctx) and discardOutboundReadBytes(ctx) to ChannelInboundByteHandler and ChannelOutboundByteHandler respectively. They are called between every inboundBufferUpdated() and flush() respectively. Their default implementation is to call discardSomeReadBytes() on their buffers and a user can override this behavior easily. For example, ReplayingDecoder.discardInboundReadBytes() looks like the following:

    @Override
    public void discardInboundReadBytes(ChannelHandlerContext ctx) throws Exception {
        ByteBuf in = ctx.inboundByteBuffer();
        final int oldReaderIndex = in.readerIndex();
        super.discardInboundReadBytes(ctx);
        final int newReaderIndex = in.readerIndex();
        checkpoint -= oldReaderIndex - newReaderIndex;
    }

If a handler, which has its own buffer index variable, extends ReplayingDecoder or ByteToMessageDecoder, the handler can also override discardInboundReadBytes() and adjust its index variable accordingly.
