Title: Configurable counter rate tracking & unifying naming convention.

In this commit we propose two small changes to statsd.

1) Perhaps not everyone needs the counter rate to be tracked. Our proposal is to make it configurable to track counter rates (default is on).

2) We propose to make counters go under stats.counters (like stats.timers) and the rate under stats.counters.rate (just as stats.timers.$KEY.mean_$PCT) to unify the naming convention across metric types.
