Description
Hi,I want to let the exporter do not return the zero matrics,because my matrics is too large.
For example I want to exclude these matrics of zero value:
pg_locks_count{datname="check_split_10c67626617311eda61d0025908bebb9",mode="accessexclusivelock",server="10.93.50.47:5432"} 0

Research direction
No implementation files, tests, or entry points are named in the issue. Start by locating where PostgreSQL lock metrics are collected and rendered by the exporter, then determine whether zero-valued series can be excluded without affecting metric semantics. Done means the exporter omits the requested zero-valued metrics while retaining nonzero series, with coverage for the example behavior.
