Title: Proposal: Backends as packages

This enables us to install and use different backends from npm as packages.

Advantages:
- Backend development can be decoupled from main StatsD
- Backend dependencies are managed in the backend package and not the StatsD one
- Potentially faster development cycles

I also added an example backend at https://github.com/mrtazz/statsd-amqp-backend
