// NewExpvarCollector returns a newly allocated expvar Collector that still has
// to be registered with a Prometheus registry.
//
// An expvar Collector collects metrics from the expvar interface. It provides a
// quick way to expose numeric values that are already exported via expvar as
// Prometheus metrics. Note that the data models of expvar and Prometheus are
// fundamentally different, and that the expvar Collector is inherently slower
// than native Prometheus metrics. Thus, the expvar Collector is probably great
// for experiments and prototying, but you should seriously consider a more
// direct implementation of Prometheus metrics for monitoring production
// systems.
//
// The exports map has the following meaning:
//
// The keys in the map correspond to expvar keys, i.e. for every expvar key you
// want to export as Prometheus metric, you need an entry in the exports
// map. The descriptor mapped to each key describes how to export the expvar
// value. It defines the name and the help string of the Prometheus metric
// proxying the expvar value. The type will always be Untyped.
//
// For descriptors without variable labels, the expvar value must be a number or
// a bool. The number is then directly exported as the Prometheus sample
// value. (For a bool, 'false' translates to 0 and 'true' to 1). Expvar values
// that are not numbers or bools are silently ignored.
//
// If the descriptor has one variable label, the expvar value must be an expvar
// map. The keys in the expvar map become the various values of the one
// Prometheus label. The values in the expvar map must be numbers or bools again
// as above.
//
// For descriptors with more than one variable label, the expvar must be a
// nested expvar map, i.e. where the values of the topmost map are maps again
// etc. until a depth is reached that corresponds to the number of labels. The
// leaves of that structure must be numbers or bools as above to serve as the
// sample values.
//
// Anything that does not fit into the scheme above is silently ignored.
