Comment:

 Please review the top commits on
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/iwakeh/metrics-
 lib.git/log/?h=task-22983-4 this branch].

 The additional commits should address all topics from the comments above
 starting at comment:47.  Sanitization and validation are now separated (of
 course only valid lines can be cleaned at all and invalid ones have to be
 discarded).  (The range of what log lines are considered valid
 (independent of them being discarded during sanitization) is kind of
 arbitrary.  Thus, for having a stricter or laxer validation it is best to
 provide test log line examples and how they should be treated.)

 Setting to high, as this is the basis for CollecTor's webstat module in
 #22428.
