And use them in the prometheus output plugin. Still need to test the prometheus output plugin. Also need to actually create typed metrics in the system plugins. closes #1683

Telegraf should support different metric types. This probably only needs to be "Gauge" and "Counter", to use terms consistent with prometheus and statsd.
see https://prometheus.io/docs/concepts/metric_types/
and https:/etsy/statsd/blob/master/docs/metric_types.md
Telegraf does not need to support "Histogram" types, because this is will be a separate type of streaming plugin that will aggregate a filtered set of metrics as they flow through the system (see #1662).
This will have a few benefits I can think of immediately:
net
input plugin.There should also be an "Untyped" type, which is what all metrics will default to.
