Julius Volz 86fc13a52e Convert metric.Values to slice of values.
The initial impetus for this was that it made unmarshalling sample
values much faster.

Overall, this gives us good speedups in the areas where they matter
most: decoding values from disk and accessing the memory storage (which
is also used for views).

Some of the smaller append examples take minimally longer, but the cost
seems to get amortized over larger appends, so I'm not worried about
these. Also, we're currently not bottlenecked on the write path and have
plenty of other optimizations available in that area if it becomes
necessary.

Memory allocations during appends don't change measurably at all.
