High-cardinality inputs (docker, procstat, kafka) trigger ALTER TABLE
ADD COLUMN on every new field name, and with all minions writing into
a shared 'telegraf' schema the metric tables hit Postgres's 1600-column
per-table ceiling quickly. Setting fields_as_jsonb and tags_as_jsonb on
the postgresql output keeps metric tables fixed at (time, tag_id,
fields jsonb) and tag tables at (tag_id, tags jsonb).
- so-stats-show rewritten to use JSONB accessors
((fields->>'x')::numeric, tags->>'host', etc.) and cast memory/disk
sizes to bigint so pg_size_pretty works
- Drop regex/regexFailureMessage from telegraf_output SOC UI entry to
match the convention upstream used when removing them from
mdengine/pcapengine/pipeline; options: list drives validation
