/**
 * Convenience macro to add a stat to a statistics group.
 *
 * This macro is used to add a stat to a Stats::Group in the
 * initilization list in the Group's constructor. The macro
 * automatically assigns the stat to the current group and gives it
 * the same name as in the class. For example:
 *
 * \code
 * struct MyStats : public Stats::Group
 * {
 *     Stats::Scalar scalar0;
 *     Stats::Scalar scalar1;
 *
 *     Group()
 *         : ADD_STAT(scalar0, "Description of scalar0"),
 *           scalar1(this, "scalar1", "Description of scalar1")
 *     {
 *     }
 * };
 * \endcode
