This can be use to forward metric to a centralised endpoint (telegraf or not)
Sample use case:
Considering a Pool of server with telegraf and tcp_forwarder
enabled, who will send data to some other sever with tcp_listener.
This allow to have a better security, as credential for "real"
output is not in every server of the Pool, and will allow to rotate
credential much easier.
