[collectd] Native output plugin for Graphite

[Gregory Szorc]

Scott,

Cool! You may be interested in my similar Python plugin. Mine initially had
a very similar feature set as yours, but GitHub pull requests have slowly
trickled in with new features, including deriving values. Feel free to
reference/copy the ideas! https://github.com/indygreg/collectd-carbon
