feat(metrics/family): contains() checks if metrics exist

this commit introduces a small accessor to the `Family<S, M, C>` metric
family type. this new `contains()` method allows callers to check
whether or not a metric with the provided set of labels exists.

if no metric has been created via e.g. `get_or_create()`, this method
will return `false`.
