add memory related stats
system/memory/used
system/memory/total
system/memory/free
all of them are Int64 Gauges.

This has no meaning. As it will be constant. May be a wall-clock time would be better.

Good catch, removed. Thx

@rghetia can you add your idea about the idle/total/user label idea?

It is already included here but I would rephrase it differently.
system/cpu_seconds | s | Int64 Cumulative | System CPU in seconds | Hostname, Mode = { total, idle, system, nice, user, iowait, stolen}
Similarly other metrics can be redefined with common metric and possible Label and its values.

| | Mode | The amount of time spent by the CPU in state (i.e. `user, nice, system, idle, iowait`). | | ||

Since the label value is related to metric it might be better to put that in the label column rather than here.

The Label is a combination of key and description, to avoid unnecessary duplication in metrics table I have added separate table for labels. Let me know if you still want me to change.
