// Push triggers a metric collection by the default registry and pushes all
// collected metrics to the Pushgateway specified by addr. See the Pushgateway
// documentation for detailed implications of the job and instance
// parameter. instance can be left empty. You can use just host:port or ip:port
// as url, in which case 'http://' is added automatically. You can also include
// the schema in the URL. However, do not include the '/metrics/jobs/...' part.
//
// Note that all previously pushed metrics with the same job and instance will
// be replaced with the metrics pushed by this call. (It uses HTTP method 'PUT'
// to push to the Pushgateway.)
