autoscaler: Node count metrics do not contain node group names

Under metric keys such as: cluster_autoscaler_scaled_up_nodes_total, cluster_autoscaler_nodes_count, cluster_autoscaler_unneeded_nodes_count - I do not see anything about which group name the nodes belonged too.

I would like to know which group cluster-autoscaler decided to scale up or down at a particular moment in time for example, right now I only have the totals in my metrics dashboards. Another example of this is that cluster_autoscaler_nodes_count also happens to include the masters, which I know will probably always be 3, but I can’t drill down to a non-master number.

@MaciekPytel any chance we could get this issue reopened?

I don’t think we want to attach any cluster-specific names to metrics. As for the number of master nodes, this would be probably easy to add. Would you be interested in contributing to this?
