The current code (this will change soon with my reactor patches)
constructs a default (Posix) network stack before reactore::configure()
reassigns it to the requested network stack.
It turns out there is one place we use the network stack before calling
reactore::configure(), which ends up using the Posix stack even though
we want the native stack - this is both silly and plainly doesn't work on
the OSv setup.
The problem is that app_template.hh tries to configure scollectd before
the engine is started. This calls scollectd::impl::start() which calls
engine.net().make_udp_channel(). When this happens this early, it creates
a Posix socket...
This patch moves the scollectd configuration to after the engine is
started. It makes sense to me: As far as I understand, scollectd is all
about sending packets (diagnostic packets), and it's kind of silly to
start sending packets before starting the machinary which allows us to
send packets.

[avi: use customary indentation, remove unneeded make_ready_future()]
Per-cpu value list registry with polling -> udp send
- Allows registration of metric values associated with
collectd id path (plugin/[plugin-inst/]type[/type-instance]).
- Values are broadcast/sent at periodic intervals. (config)
- Config through seastar.conf / app-template.
- Value registration can be revoked safely, either manually or
through anchor.
