Add a playbook that tests collectd 6 vs collectd5
The playbook will:
* build collectd-6, collectd-latest and flask app
containers
* generate a set of collectd configs
* launch the collectd-6, collectd-latest with the generated configs
* run the flask app which has a http_server that receives metrics from
collectd v5 and collectd v6
* display the received metrics from both versions of collectd
Collectd v5 shows PUTVAL
Collectd v6 shows PUTMETRIC
The playbook takes the following parameters:
* PR (optional)
The PRID for an upstream collectd pull request that will be
passed to the collectd 6 container build
* plugin (optional)
The name of the plugin that is bneing ported
This will filter the received metrics to show the value passed.
Additional updates to existing roles include:
* run_collectd
parameterises the collectd container name so that the role can be reused for
launching multiple collectd containers by passing distinct names.
