Use Case

The currently reported metrics look like:

MetricName_field1
MetricName_field2

Would like to be able to get metrics reported in the following format with a configuration like metric_separator = ".":

MetricName.field1
MetricName.field2

Expected behavior

Would like to be able to configure separator like it is done for Wavefront output plugin:

telegraf/plugins/outputs/wavefront/README.md

Line 41 in a72550a

# metric_separator = "."

Actual behavior

Currently, separator is hardcoded as _

telegraf/plugins/outputs/cloudwatch/cloudwatch.go

Line 78 in c0b3dd4

MetricName: aws.String(strings.Join([]string{f.metricName, f.fieldName}, "_")),
