This is a bit more conservative than we could be. As long as a chunk
isn't the first in a block, we can be pretty sure that the previous
chunk won't disappear. However, the incremental gain of returning
NotCounterReset in these cases is probably very small and might not be
worth the code complications.
Wwith this, we now also pay attention to an explicitly set counter
reset during ingestion. While the case doesn't show up in practice
yet, there could be scenarios where the metric source knows there was
a counter reset even if it might not be visible from the values in the
histogram. It is also useful for testing.

- Adjust doc comments to go1.19 style.
- Break down some overly long lines.
- Minor doc comment tweaks and fixes.
- Some renaming.
Some rationales for the last point:
I have renamed “interjections” into “inserts”, mostly because it is
shorter, and the word shows up a lot by now (and the concept is
cryptic enough to not obfuscate it even more with abbreviations).
I have also tried to find more descriptive naming for the “compare
spans” functions.

This is to check if a gauge histogram can be appended to the given chunk.
If not, it tells what changes to make to the chunk and the histogram
if possible.
