Goal: if counter's are used, there is no need to start counter's caches!

Main change:

• remove __counter_configuration and use the state-cache to store counter's configuration

Summary:

• When the first counter is defined and stored in the state-cache, the __counter cache is started.
• When a node joins, it starts the __counter cache if it finds a counter's configured stored
• We need to persist the counter's configuration (for persisted counters only!) manually since the state-cache isn't persisted

Issues

• the state-cache is available during partitions! same counter can be defined with different configuration
  users have to deal with it while I can't find a way to resolve a conflict.
