[Wikimetrics] Update to Wikimetrics

Hello,

https://metrics.wmflabs.org/ was updated a few hours ago with changes that
were proposed 2 weeks ago:

The metrics "Edits" and "Pages Created" have a new option to include counts
on deleted or archived pages. This option is on by default.

Cautions:
- In some cases the results of Edits & Pages Created counts will be a lot
higher than what you are used to when you factor in deleted pages.
- Recurring reports that started beforehand and are still running daily
will now count deleted / archived pages. These will show a jump on 10/3.

Bonus: on both these metrics, you now have the ability to count across all
namespaces. Just delete all text in the namespaces field and it will
default to counting everything.

cheers,
Kevin Leduc

small correction: I saw anecdotally higher numbers when using *all*
namespaces, not when factoring in deleted pages. Deleted pages normally
don't account for significant editing activity.
