I suppose this filter option is useful.   Default of "both" makes sense.

A few minor suggestions inline.

We could describe this as a bitmap, but i think you are right in thinking
it is clearer to present it as 3 values as not always obvious that the bitmap
is controlling sum of two different things.

I'm not sure this warning makes sense.  If user has set this filter then
they don't want to measure the types they haven't picked.  I would drop
the warning and example.  It is fairly obvious that no_counts == nothing
to count.

Drop this example.

Anything with a default is inherently optional, so could we just say
Default value if not specified is 2'b11.
