beorn7 c35f138a9a Be more specific when identifying a sparse histogram
It's a prefectly valid use case to have a sparse histogram with a zero
threshold of zero (i.e. only observations of exactly zero go into the
zero bucket). Even if the current PoC implementation of client_golang
doesn't allow that, such a case should be ingested properly.

However, there is now the edge case af a sparse histogram with a zero
threshold of zero and no observations yet. Such a histogram would look
the same if it was meant to be a conventional histogram. For now, we
ingest this case as a conventional histogram, but the final format
should have means to unambiguously express if a histogram is meant to
be ingested as a sparse histogram or as a conventional histogram.
