delete or remove method in ruby-client

[wdp-007]

I did not find delete or remove method in ruby-client, like gauge:
gauge.set({ room: 'kitchen' }, 21.534)
gauge.get({ room: 'kitchen' })
Is there any gauge.delete or gauge.remove method? I did not find this in the source code also.

Or is there any way or parameter to make metrics expire?

For direct instrumentation, no labels should be used which need to get removed again. This is usually a sign for wrong instrumentation.

There are valid use cases though, which almost all fall into the use case of writing exporters. client_ruby is currently not well suited to well suited for that, until the collector interface has been implemented #36.
