Blackhole Exporter

Discard telemetry.

The blackhole exporter will drop all telemetry exported immediately. It can be useful when debugging and you're using the --debug-log option to log telemetry. It can also be useful if you are using an exporter that doesn't support a given telemetry type, but you'd still like to listen and receive the remaining telemetry types.

The blackhole exporter can be used by specifying --exporter blackhole.
