Add link to SPARC solaris exporter.

Hello, I want to share my exporter for SPARC Solaris: [https://github.com/n27051538/solaris_exporter]. Could you create link to it on [https://prometheus.io/docs/instrumenting/exporters/] (Hardware related)?

It gathers information similar to node_exporter but it is written on Python. The problem of node_exporter is that it is written on Go Lang, and it not provides the release for SPARC Solaris. I tried to build it on SPARC Solaris, but had no success. That is why I wrote my own exporter on Python.

Also I provide alert rules, Grafana Dashboard and Ansible playbook for Deployment.

Thanks for sharing. We try to avoid duplication in this list, but it sounds like the node exporter may not cover your use case.

@SuperQ is SPARC officially/unofficially supported by the node exporter?

It's officially supported, but I don't think we include binaries in the release builds.

Dears, as I wrote, I tried to build node_exporter on SPARC Solaris, but had no success. I had trouble with too old golang compiler on SPARC Solaris 11.4 (the latest). I understand, that SPARC platform is not popular and soon goes away, that is why you not providing binaries of node_exporter. My exporter is a quick solution for people who have to support existing SPARC environment (such as I am).
