* The RPCPlugin allows for interacting with a TSD using different protocols
* such as Protobufs, Thrift, Memcache, anything folks want to create. Users
* may configure one or more optional protocol plugins when starting a TSD. The
* plugin is responsible for setting up necessary IO in the {@link #initialize}
* method and if there is a problem, such as failure to bind to a socket or
* missing config options, throw an exception so the user can fix the issue.
* <p>
* Initially this plugin should be used to accept incoming data points. Simply
* parse the data and call {@link TSDB#addPoint}.
* <p>
* <b>Note:</b> Implementations must have a parameterless constructor. The
* {@link #initialize(TSDB)} method will be called immediately after the plugin is
* instantiated and before any other methods are called.
* @since 2.0
