When collecting many metrics, the intermediate
std::vector<MetricFamily>
objects can heavily grow in size and cause memory fragmentation (see #646). This PR implements direct text-serialization into a buffer array whose buffers are 1 MByte at maximum.The extreme memory fragmentation that I saw with the glibc allocator as well as the huge memory spikes during collection are now gone. There are now multiple other optimization possibilities, but this is the bare minimum needed.
