Instead of inserting the interface address into the metric name, use the metric address as a label prefix for the value being reported.

This allows our metric names to be stable even if you don't know the ip/port combo that will be used ahead of time.

The tradeoff is the label names may change between restarts if the port number changes, but we have to apply a disambguator somewhere.

@achingbrain Should we wait for the libp2p release with updated prometheus metrics before merging this?

No need - this module uses the new metrics interface as of v6

I get that, but will it cause perf issues before we update prometheus metrics in libp2p?

Are you talking about using it with the current libp2p release? If so tsc should complain as [email protected] supplies @libp2p/[email protected] and this module requires @libp2p/[email protected] - it should be used with libp2p@next
