'total' literal not correct for Gauge Calculation #540

Howdy, I believe GAUGE_CALC_TOTAL = 'total' needs to be changed to GAUGE_CALC_TOTAL = 'sum'. The literal 'total' fails to define the Calculation value for a bar gauge, 'sum' literal has worked for me (using grafanalib 0.7.0)

I can confirm this:

This can also be seen here where total is set to sum.
