Michael Grupp e0b2196cec Add gauge metrics for inter-submap constraints. (#1465)
Since the constraint builder metrics are ever-increasing, it makes sense
to add gauges that monitor the current counts of constraints in the pose
graph. The main advantages are that they also take trimming into account
and distinguish constraints within or across trajectories.

Purpose
=======

`Cartographer`_ is a system that provides real-time simultaneous localization
and mapping (`SLAM`_) in 2D and 3D across multiple platforms and sensor
configurations.
