Closes #12047
Changes some metrics to be prometheus gauges, not counters. Counters should be monotonically increasing numbers that can reset to 0, which is not what the following metrics are:
organisation count
bucket count
tokens count
dashboards count
scrapers count
telegrafs count
remotes count
replications count
