[collectd] Version 3.4.0 released

[Florian Forster]

Good morning,

I've just uploaded the new version, 3.4.0, to the website. I've applied
- David Bacher's changes to build without librrd,
- Poter Holik's `cpufreq' patch,
- Alvaro Barcellos' `no daemonization' patch and
- the PID file patch from the gentoo folks.

I didn't have time to dig into the Solaris issue, but the
`collection.cgi' has been improved. I still doesn't have much
documentation, though.

With such specialized modules as `cpufreq' or `serial' it's not very
advisable to always install all possible modules. Therefore I've split
up the (Debian) package into pieces with one package for each module.
This is admittedly not the best solution, but it'll do till I am certain
what to do.. Any thoughts on this?

Of course, this is still true ;)
