This chang creates a GaugeInfo metrics type for registering informational (textual) metrics, e.g. geth version number. It also improves the testing for backend-exporters, and uses a shared subpackage in 'internal' to provide sample datasets and ordered registry.
Implements #21783

The name of a method’s receiver should be a reflection of its identity;
often a one or two letter abbreviation of its type suffices (such as
“c” or “cl” for “Client”). Don’t use generic names such as “me”, “this”
or “self”, identifiers typical of object-oriented languages that place
more emphasis on methods as opposed to functions. The name need not be
as descriptive as that of a method argument, as its role is obvious and
serves no documentary purpose. It can be very short as it will appear
on almost every line of every method of the type; familiarity admits
brevity. Be consistent, too: if you call the receiver “c” in one method,
don’t call it “cl” in another.
