stats: Add stat_item for value monitoring
This commit adds instrumentation function to gather measurement and statistical values similar to counter groups. Multiple values can be stored per item, which can be retrieved in FIFO order. Getting values from the item does not modify its state to allow for multiple independant backends (e.g. VTY and statd). When a new value is set, the oldest value gets silently overwritten. Lost values are skipped when getting values from the item. Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
