    dispatch proper values in Python write plugin
    
    Fixes the Python write callback so the appropriate value is dispatched to
    Python. Previously, the code only looked at the first element of a data set
    to determine which value type (GAUGE, COUNTER, etc) to dispatch. If your data
    set consisted of multiple values of different types, then the Python write
    plugin was receiving bad values for the elements at position n > 0 whose type
    was not the same as that at position 0.

    filter_chain: Use a complaint to report plugin_write()'s ENOENT error.
    
    In most cases this is a permanent error, so using the complain mechanism
    avoids spamming the logs.

    src/plugin.c: Print a more verbose error message if lt_dlopen() fails.
    
    Since the Debian package doesn't depend on the libraries used by the
    collectd plugins, some plugins may fail to load. ltdl reports this with
    the very confusing error message "file not found". Since the plugin is
    in fact available, many users don't realize a dependency is missing and
    assume collectd is looking in the wrong directory -- and they are hardly
    to blame for this.
    
    This commit introduces a lengthy error message which hopefully points
    users into the right direction.
