Comment:

 There, I started splitting up this huge commit into several smaller ones
 that are easier to review.  Please find
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/karsten/metrics-
 lib.git/log/?h=task-21932-2 my task-21932-2 branch] with four commits that
 are ready for review and a fifth (and last) commit with the remaining
 changes.  If you'd like to review the first four commits, I'd merge them
 to master and work more on the fifth commit later today or tomorrow.
 Thanks!
