All metrics are in alphabetical order.
These were introduced to address an inherent flaw with existing counters when metrics are aggregated (default behaviour). When connections or channels terminate, their metrics get garbage collected (meaning that they disappear after a while). All counters that aggregate metrics across connections and channels decrease, since the sum is now lower, and that in turn results rate & irate functions in Prometheus returning nonsensical values (e.g. 4Mil msg/s). This problem is made worse by Streams, since those values may be real, but we can't trust them, which is the worst place to be in. The Global counters fix this, and also introduce per-protocol as well as per-protocol AND queue type metrics, which is something that many of you have requested for a while now.

Metrics rabbitmq_global_messages_dead_lettered_* have labels queue_type and dead_letter_strategy.
Label queue_type denotes the type of queue messages were discarded from. It can have value
rabbit_classic_queue,rabbit_quorum_queue, orrabbit_mqtt_qos0_queue
(Queue type rabbit_stream_queue does not dead letter messages.)
Note that metrics rabbitmq_global_messages_dead_lettered_* with label queue_type set to rabbit_quorum_queue
might miss some counter updates in certain failure scenarios, i.e. the reported Prometheus value could be
slightly lower than the actual number of messages dead lettered (and confirmed).
(This is because in the current implementation quorum queue leaders update the counters asynchronously.)
Label dead_letter_strategy can have value
disabledif queue has no dead-letter-exchange configured or if configured dead-letter-exchange does not exist implying messages get dropped, orat_most_onceif queue's configured dead-lettered-exchange exists, orat_least_onceif queue type israbbit_quorum_queuewith configureddead-letter-exchangeanddead-letter-strategyset toat-least-onceandoverflowset toreject-publish.
These metrics are specific to the stream protocol.
