need cumulative counters

[srl295]

SO this is what I wanted to query: rate(count(github_workflow_run_status)[30m])

but it doesn't work, maybe because count() is an aggregate function(?). Probably better would be if there's an inbuilt cumulative counter for workflows of different status:

github_workflow_run_status_total{state="success"} - incremented on success
github_workflow_run_status_total{state="started"} - incremented when job is started (or if an otherwise-unknown job is seen)
github_workflow_run_status_total{state="error"}- incremented on err
github_workflow_run_status_total{state="queued"} - incremented when job is queued, not decremented when it leaves the queue
github_workflow_run_status_total{state="in_progress"} - incremented when job is in progress, NOT decremented when it completes

If jobs go from error/success back to started, then let them start incrementing again.
