Configuration translator

[paulfantom]

Feature idea summary

We need to have a configuration translator which will translate configuration from python.d.plugin configuration schema into go.d.plugin configuration schema.

Configuration schema developed for go.d.plugin will be then a standard job configuration stored in conf.d directory instead of separate plugin configuration directories.

This translator is essential for including go.d.plugin into default netdata installation.

Expected behavior

All plugins use the same configuration schema.
