Proposal: Migrate to Fluentd v0.14 API and convert to filter plugin

[okkez]

Fluentd v0.14 has clear and useful API to implement plugins.
So I want to migrate this plugin to Fluentd v0.14 API.

I think we can implement this plugin as filter plugin using Fluentd v0.14 API.
And we can drop output plugin version of this plugin.
Because Fluentd developers said: Use label feature to control routing instead of modifying tags.

@muddydixon Do you have any concern?
Do you have enough time to maintain this plugin?

we want filter plugin with v0.12 API, then want to migrate into v0.14 later.

i wanna try it, but in these days I have no time so if you have time, pls make p-r.

Will this filter plugin use #filter_stream?
If so, it will be less useful because #filter_stream will not be optimized on v0.14.
