[BUG] Incorrect log rate metrics emitted by executor

[Gerg]

Current behavior

Starting with Diego Release v2.139.0, the app log rate metric is emitted twice: once as 0 and once as the actual value.

Reproduction steps:

❯ cf push noisy-app -b binary_buildpack -m 64M -u process -c "while true; do echo 'Generating constant log traffic to establish a non-zero log rate'; sleep 0.1; done"

Prior to Diego v2.139.0:

❯ cf tail noisy-app -f -c metric | grep log_rate

   2026-08-12T12:09:23.86-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate:631.466667 B/s
   2026-08-12T12:09:23.86-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate_limit:-1.000000 B/s
   2026-08-12T12:09:38.86-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate:631.466667 B/s
   2026-08-12T12:09:38.86-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate_limit:-1.000000 B/s

Starting with Diego v2.139.0:

❯ cf tail noisy-app -f -c metric | grep log_rate

   2026-08-12T12:58:06.01-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate:0.000000 B/s
   2026-08-12T12:58:06.01-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate_limit:0.000000 B/s
   2026-08-12T12:58:13.06-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate_limit:-1.000000 B/s
   2026-08-12T12:58:13.06-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate:631.466667 B/s
   2026-08-12T12:58:21.01-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate:0.000000 B/s
   2026-08-12T12:58:21.01-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate_limit:0.000000 B/s
   2026-08-12T12:58:28.06-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate:631.466667 B/s
   2026-08-12T12:58:28.06-0700 [noisy-app/0] GAUGE log_rate_limit:-1.000000 B/s

Note the log_rate:0.000000 B/s in addition to the actual value.
