[collectd] unable to get exec plugin to work

[Dev]

Thank you!  It was the types.db update that was missing.  I suggest a 
brief mention of the types.db file in the collectd-exec man page.

Additionally, I also had to update the collection.cgi script with proper 
RRD syntax to handle the new data/graph(s).
