This change is a companion to the fix for monotonic counter implementations in spectatord. Netflix-Skunkworks/spectatord#90 The original monotonic counter (`C`) was always intended to be used for the case where a monotonic data source needs to be transformed into base units for recording data. For example, transforming nanoseconds into seconds. This requires division, which results in floats. There is a valid use case for handling uints in monotonic counters, if the data source is already in a base unit, such as bytes. Thus, a new meter type `U` is added to spectatord which supports this use case.
