This change adds a new collector called "nfs" that parses the contents
of /proc/net/rpc/nfs and turns it into metrics. It can be used to
inspect the number of operations per type, but also to keep an eye on an
extraneous number of retransmissions, which may indicate connectivity
issues.
I've picked the name "nfs", as most operating systems use "nfs" for the
client component and "nfsd" as the server component. If we want to add
stats for the NFS server as well, we'd better call such a collector
"nfsd".
* Add hwmon support (mainly known from lm-sensors)
This commit adds initial support for linux hardware sensors, exported
through sysfs.
Details of the interface can be found at
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface
* Add end-to-end test with some real life data
* Cleanup comments on hwmon collector
* Drop raw sensor name from hwmon output
* Let the sensor label be "sensor"
* Add hwmon short description to README.
Add new collector which exposes the content of /sys/kernel/mm/ksm
directory. This directory contains control and statistics files for
Kernel Samepage Merging daemon.
The collector is not enabled by default.

It is sometimes useful to understand the distribution of free/occupied
memory between NUMA nodes to deal with performance problems. To do so,
add new meminfo_numa collector that enables exporting of per node
statistics along with unit and end-to-end tests for it.

This test runs a selection of collectors against the fixtures and
compares the output to a reference.
The uname and filesystem collectors are disabled because they use system
calls that cannot be fixtured easily.
