// labelSetToFastFingerprint works similar to labelSetToFingerprint but uses a
// faster and less allocation-heavy hash function, which is more susceptible to

// SignatureForLabels works like LabelsToSignature but takes a Metric as

// SignatureWithoutLabels works like LabelsToSignature but takes a Metric as
// parameter (rather than a label map) and excludes the labels with any of the
// specified LabelNames from the signature calculation.
