This is for better thread-safety when running with multiple outputs,
which can cause very odd panics at very high loads
primarily this is to address #1432closes#1432
changes:
- -sample-config will now comment out all but a few default plugins.
- config file parse errors will output path to bad conf file.
- cleanup 80-char line-length and some other style issues.
- default package conf file will now have all plugins, but commented
out.
closes#199closes#944
- using 8092 as the default port because it's similar to the rest of
the TICK stack (InfluxDB, for example, uses 8083, 8086, 8088, etc.).
didn't want to use 8125 because that conflicts with statsd.
