Description

I think there are at least two different naming conventions followed for metrics.

One of them looks like:

```
pinot.server...
pinot.server..
```
(e.g. `realtimeIngestionDelayMs`, `segmentCount`)

And the other type looks like:

```
pinot.server..
```
(e.g. `deletedSegmentCount`)

The hierarchy between metric and table names is different. Is this intentional?
