Providing a historization plugin

[pdekeulenaer]

A plugin that enables a local sqlite database to track datapoints and show them on a specific history page.

More data, more dependencies; ergo more swarm resources used

OH MY GOD A WHOLE PLUGINS SYSTEM HAS ENTERED THE CHAT

wouldnt prometheus (see: #31) be a better approach to preserve historic values?

[pdekeulenaer]

It probably would but that requires someone to be running prometheus to pick it up. This plugin is self-contained, i.e., it includes the database and a monitoring page incase someone wants to run it standalone. Given the prometheus change has been made, it may make sense for the "plugin" to just use that API call to get the data from though - but still store it locally.
