Create the default MetricsManager instance and configure it with a StreamPublisher that will publish recorded metrics to the specified stream, then return the address of the modifiable created metrics manager instance. Optionally specify basicAllocator to use to obtain memory. If basicAllocator is 0, the currently installed global allocator is used. The behavior is undefined unless 0 == MetricsManager::instance() prior to calling this method, or if this method is called from one thread while another thread is attempting to access the default metrics manager instance (i.e., this method is not thread-safe).
