Adds a simple public function to expose the prometheus reporter.HTTPHandler to allow exposing metrics on a separate server then the server that collects them.
Motivation why it is useful, when running the application inside secure environment it good practice to expose only the public facing api to outside world and keep metrics behind a firewall as they might expose useful informations to malicious users.
Not sure if the current place (next to Collector() inside collector.go) is the right one, but I'm willing to do any necessary changes to get this merged, thanks.

I'm also interested in this change. Is there any maintainer that can take a look?
