collectd: Introduce collectd-mod-ethstat

The ethstat plugin for collectd provides a convenient way to track a large list
of variables associated with network interfaces such as channel busy time and
many others.

A list of the available variables for a given interface may be acquired by
running ethtool -S <interface>
