Title: Configurable metric namespace

A first stab at a clean implementation of key namespacing based on ideas brought up in other pull requests. This whole pull request handles namespaces in the graphite backend only. Other backends can handle their respective namespacing differently.

There is now an option available to change the global `stats` prefix to something else, as well as not having one by setting it to the empty string (`""`). The same goes for `counters`, `timers` and `gauges` which are now located under their type identifiers per default.
