Librato Output Plugin

This plugin writes to the Librato Metrics API and requires an api_user and api_token which can be obtained here for the account.

The source_tag option in the Configuration file is used to send contextual information from Point Tags to the API.

If the point value being sent cannot be converted to a float64, the metric is skipped.

Currently, the plugin does not send any associated Point Tags.
