this is for supporting external plugins.
external plugins will depend on a few telegraf interface types, as well
as a common telegraf registry.
this will allow external and internal plugins to both share this package
and make it easier to vendor/version the whole thing semantically, which
will make it easier to keep plugins supported across build and telegraf
versions.

Lustre Jobstats allows for RPCs to be tagged with a value, such
as a job's ID. This allows for per job statistics. This plugin
collects statistics and tags the data with the jobid.

This will basically make the root directory a place for storing the
major telegraf interfaces, which will make telegraf's godoc looks quite
a bit nicer. And make it easier for contributors to lookup the few data
types that they actually care about.
