perf: avoid allocating a mapping lambda on every labelValues() call

[david-mollitor-db]

What

StatefulMetric.labelValues(...) — the path every counter.labelValues(...).inc() /
histogram.labelValues(...).observe(...) goes through — called
data.computeIfAbsent(key, l -> newDataPoint()) on every invocation. The mapping function
captures this (via metadata/labelNames), so it is not a cached singleton: a new lambda
instance is allocated on every call, including the overwhelmingly common case where the data point
already exists (the lambda argument is constructed before computeIfAbsent runs, even though it is
only invoked on a miss).

This adds a data.get(key) fast path that returns the existing data point without constructing the
lambda:

List<String> key = Arrays.asList(labelValues);
T dataPoint = data.get(key);
if (dataPoint != null) {
  return dataPoint;
}
// miss: validate the raw array outside the CHM lock, then create at-most-once
for (int i = 0; i < labelValues.length; i++) {
  if (labelValues[i] == null) {
    throw new IllegalArgumentException(
        "null label value for metric " + metadata.getName() + " and label " + labelNames[i]);
  }
}
return data.computeIfAbsent(key, l -> newDataPoint());

Two secondary points folded in on the miss path:

• the null-value validation now runs before computeIfAbsent, i.e. outside the
  ConcurrentHashMap bin lock, and operates on the raw String[] (no List.get indirection);
• creation stays inside computeIfAbsent on purpose — newDataPoint() has a side effect (a native
  histogram may schedule a reset task via Scheduler.schedule), so at-most-once creation must be
  preserved; putIfAbsent with a pre-built value would leak the loser's scheduled task on a race.

Why

labelValues(...) is the hottest path in the library (every metric update). In a JMH benchmark of a
histogram-heavy workload, the get() fast path cut record-path allocation by ~18% — exactly the
16-byte captured lambda per observation.

Correctness

Behavior is unchanged (a null label value still throws on first use, since a null-containing key is
never inserted and so always reaches the miss branch). Verified by the core tests, including
StatefulMetricTest.
