Title: Add new returner carbon, to push metrics directly to carbon server

This returner expects data from module to be in the format
{ vm : {
metric_name: val
...
}
...
}

Like the output from the virt.*stats functions.

This returner could be further extended to sense the datatype returned and act accordingly.
