libpcp: optimize indom handling in fetchgroup code
Looking into some pcp-ss issues I immediately encountered a
noticable elapsed time difference between executing just ss
versus pcp-ss. It turned out it was due to fetchgroup code
not really understanding how the underlying indom APIs work
and repeatedly refreshing shared indoms (all metrics in the
pcp-ss tool actually share one indom) once for every metric
that happens to use that indom - i.e. many times per fetch.
These changes resulted in a 5x speedup in pcp-ss and it now
completes instantly as expected. Additionally, we use alot
less memory now for the many-metrics-sharing-an-indom case.
