Monitoring

• add mtail support (new optional mtail_address ini value)
  This defines the address on which mtail
  exposes its metrics collected from the logs.
  If you want to collect the metrics with Prometheus,
  setup a private network (e.g. WireGuard interface)
  and assign an IP address from this network to the host.
  If you do not plan to collect metrics,
  keep this setting unset.
