Enable HTTP metrics. More detail is in #211, but the necessary metrics code already existed, it just doesn't seem to be used.

Are there any security concerns with this? I think in another project we ran the metrics on a separate port from main traffic.

It runs on a separate port (default 8090). The problem in this case is that the counters weren't moving, because the way they are implemented is as as simple wrapper that does (roughly):

counter.start()
real_handler_goes_here.doStuff()
counter.stop()

But we weren't using the wrapper for HTTP, though we are for WS and IPC.
