Change count and sum to gcount and gsum in the exposition for gauge histograms. This mirrors OM 1.0 suffixes.

There's too many complications if we don't do this. The only downside is that the histogram functions in PromQL don't have a gauge version, but I think we can live with that. Or even add those later if anyone needs them - which I doubt.

Also fix that gauge histograms model currently doesn't have start timestamp, but our text format seemed to conflict with this, from #2903 (comment)
