[Metrics-lib](https://metrics.torproject.org/metrics-lib.html) is a JAVA based API that is used to parse and validate Tor network documents. The rust rewrite should provide the same parsing and validation functionalities provided by metrics-lib and in addition allow exporting of the documents in some external storage, like parquet files to be saved into object storage or a table on a postgresql database.
