Counter: expose the previous and changed values.

This commit extends the `Counter` API with the `pre_value` and
`post_value` attributes. These attributes are set when a counter
is changed. Previously, if the counter was modified concurrently,
it was not possible to access the exact value to which the counter
was set after a successful increment or decrement.
