Add influxdb plugin

This was primarily intended to consume InfluxDB-style expvars,
particularly InfluxDB's `/debug/vars` endpoint.

That endpoint follows a structure like

```json
{
  "httpd::8086": {
    "name": "httpd",
    "tags": {
      "bind": ":8086"
    },
    "values": {
      "pointsWrittenOK": 33756,
      "queryReq": 19,
      "queryRespBytes": 26973,
      "req": 428,
      "writeReq": 205,
      "writeReqBytes": 3939161
    }
  }
}
```

There are an arbitrary number of top-level keys in the JSON response at
the configured URLs, and this plugin will iterate through all of their
values looking for objects with keys "name", "tags", and "values"
indicating a metric to be consumed by telegraf.

Running this on current master of InfluxDB, I am able to record nearly
the same information that is normally stored in the `_internal`
database; the only measurement missing from `_internal` is `runtime`,
which is present under the "memstats" key but does not follow the format
and so is not consumed in this plugin.

```
$ influx -database=telegraf -execute 'SHOW FIELD KEYS FROM /influxdb/'
