Add Total Topics and Total Subscriptions to the `/v1/stats` API about ntfy HOT 5 CLOSED

My apologies for not responding earlier, but I do not thing that this info should be exposed in a public endpoint due to security concerts. It leaks info. I realize that the number of messages is already questionable, but I need that to display the nice counter on the website.

Thanks for your response!

Ahh okay no worries! Ya I thought that if you were comfortable with the total message quantity and message rate metrics being exposed via API that there wouldn't be an issue with showing the total number of topics, subscriptions etc.

Is there another way it would be possible to expose these metrics? Maybe behind an auth'd API?

I could see the stats API returning more stats when queried by an admin user, which should be relatively easy to achieve. Basically return the same stuff that the metrics endpoint would.

Are you referring to this file as the "metrics endpoint" -> https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/blob/main/server/server_metrics.go

Yeah, the prometheus endpoint is how you'd usually get metrics. It's pretty awesome.
