feat: Add prometheus printer

[atzawada]

Adding a new "printer" (reporter, exporter?) to push Kubent output to Prometheus via Pushgateway. Any feedback is appreciated.

Relates to #302 and the discussion in #218

New Configuration

Flags

• -o prometheus is now an allowed option

Environment Variables

• PUSHGATEWAY_URL: The URL of the Prometheus Pushgateway.
• PUSHGATEWAY_JOB: The job to collect metrics under.

If -o prometheus is set, then both of these variables are required to be set.

Remaining Questions

• Maybe need to expand on the configuration abilities for printers...Is environment variables the right approach or should printers be able to accept custom config/define their own flags?

Remaining Work

• [ ] Add Pushgateway auth options
• [ ] Add unit testing

Not to tell you that you shouldn't do this, but you might consider https://github.com/isugimpy/kubent_exporter/ as an alternative to this. Having a publisher built in would be pretty cool though.

Hi @atzawada , I think we can support this. Not sure about adding all those env variables, we handle those in config.go. Happy to add the printer, but pushing the messages should probably be handled by another tool.

If you rebase this and add some tests I'll happily merge it.
