Address PR review feedback - complete implementation

- Use time.perf_counter() for latency measurement (monotonic clock) in core.py and metrics.py
- Fix Prometheus text exporter to include ALL metrics: hits, misses, hit_rate, avg_latency_ms, stale_hits, recalculations, entry_count, cache_size_bytes, size_limit_rejections
- Fix repeated HELP/TYPE headers by emitting them once per metric type
- Add host parameter to PrometheusExporter (default: 127.0.0.1) for security
- Implement cache size tracking in base core and memory core:
  * _update_size_metrics() to trigger updates
  * _get_entry_count() and _get_total_size() methods
  * Call after set_entry, clear_cache, delete_stale_entries
- All 19 tests passing
- Cache size metrics now working correctly
