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.
see #1717
in this commit:
- centralize logging output handler.
- set global Info/Debug/Error log levels based on config file or flags.
- remove per-plugin debug arg handling.
- add a I!, D!, or E! to every log message.
- add configuration option to specify where to send logs.

First is to write an internal CombinedOutput and Run function with a
timeout.
Second, the following instances of command runners need to have timeouts:
plugins/inputs/ping/ping.go
125: out, err := c.CombinedOutput()
plugins/inputs/exec/exec.go
91: if err := cmd.Run(); err != nil {
plugins/inputs/ipmi_sensor/command.go
31: err := cmd.Run()
plugins/inputs/sysstat/sysstat.go
194: out, err := cmd.CombinedOutput()
plugins/inputs/leofs/leofs.go
185: defer cmd.Wait()
plugins/inputs/sysstat/sysstat.go
282: if err := cmd.Wait(); err != nil {
