res_chan_stats: Fix bug to send correct statistics to StatsD

Fixed a bug that originally would show a negative number of
active calls occuring in Asterisk. A gauge is persistent so
incrementing and decrementing it results in a more consistent
performance. Also changed to the call to StatsD to use
ast_statsd_log_string() so that a "+" could be sent to StatsD.
