Json exporter

Prometheus metrics exporter for any json metrics that are provided by elasticsearch or kafka-manager

Why do I need another exporter?

• you can drop metrics you don't use. Less metrics - better for Prometheus
• you can add metrics you need without patching source code. Just put them into config.
• Elasticsearch exporter is not maintained for a long time
