Part of a larger refactoring to reduce cyclic dependencies between CountStat
and DataCollector (coming soon).

Rishi Gupta 341e1b54fc counts.py: Remove zerver_table from ZerverCountQuery.
Was only needed for filter_args, which are now gone.

Rishi Gupta 661de6bf25 counts.py: Remove filter_args argument from CountStat definition.
It turned out to not be that useful once we added subgroup. The previous
design of the CountStat object also assumed more reuseability of the *_query
strings than what ended up happening.

The filter_args also had some carrying costs:

* It's hard to be confident that filter_args other than the ones explicitly
  in our tests would have had expected behavior.
* The filter_args/join_args system is the most complex part of the CountStat
  object, and makes understanding the *_query strings unnecessarily
  difficult for a new contributor.

Rishi Gupta 9b661ca91f analytics: Replace CountStat.is_gauge with interval.
Groundwork for allowing stats like "Monthly Active Users".

CountStat.interval is no longer as clean a value as before, so removed it
from views.get_chart_data. It wasn't being used by the frontend anyway.

Removing interval from logger calls in counts.py is not a big loss since we
now include the frequency (which is typically also the interval) in
CountStat.property.
