A Rust statsd client for fast-and-loose stats.

Alternatives:

• https://github.com/tshlabs/cadence
• https://github.com/markstory/rust-statsd
• https://github.com/erik/rust-statsd

Why this one?

• tuned for heavily-sampled stats;
• avoids floats at runtime wherever possible;
• uses evil global state for the convenience of being able to drop a statsd! macro anywhere (using the same approach as the log crate).

(This might not be true yet; this crate is in embryonic state and I think I'll have to do some procedural macro magic to get the effect I want.)
