WebService-DataDog

This module allows you to interact with DataDog (http://http://www.datadoghq.com/),
a service that will "Capture metrics and events, then graph, filter, and search
to see what's happening and how systems interact. Datadog is a service for IT,
Operations and Development teams who write and run applications at scale, and
want to turn the massive amounts of data produced by their apps, tools and
services into actionable insight."

This module encapsulates all the communications with the REST API provided by
DataDog to offer a Perl interface to metrics, dashboards, events, alerts, etc.

You can find your API key, and generate application keys at
https://app.datadoghq.com/account/settings

For help with graph definitions (when creating/updating dashboards), please visit
http://docs.datadoghq.com/graphing/  and
http://help.datadoghq.com/kb/graphs-dashboards/graph-primer


**NOTE: This is in the development stage and has somewhat reduced functionality.
I intend to continue updating, eventually adding all functionality that
DataDog-provided Ruby and Python API libraries have.

* Capture 404 errors on certain actions and show "invalid/unknown $object id" instead

  - getting all tags; getting tags on specified host
  - adding/updating tags for a specific host
