`increase()` returns the cumulative sum of non-negative differences between subsequent values.
The primary use case for `increase()` is tracking changes in counter values
which may wrap overtime when they hit a threshold or are reset. In the case
of a wrap/reset, `increase()` assumes that the absolute delta between two
points is at least their non-negative difference.
