Title: Ignore statsd namespace if an empty string is provided

Statsd doesn't require a namespace and in my use case with a zabbix backend it doesn't make sense. This is a simple change to allow the config below to mean no namespace should be sent.

output {
statsd {
namespace => ""
}
}

I am currently using this and it works as desired.
