Alloy Collector Configuration Example

node_exporter

Based on the template at https://grafana.com/docs/grafana-cloud/monitor-infrastructure/integrations/integration-reference/integration-linux-node/.

Changes:

1. Add netstat block to collect additional metrics.

TODOs:

1. Similar to https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/pull/2867, propose adding AttemptFails to the default collector.netstat.fields. EstabResets might be worth adding too.
2. Restore Alloy configuration to the template if the proposed node_exporter changes are merged to Alloy.
