Description

First `.tag()` method for influxDBOut() node removes first letter 't' from a tag name (it's weird, I know!)

Example code:
data = stream |
|from()
.measurement('example')
|influxDBOut()
.database('output')
.measurement('result')
.create()
.tag('test_tag', 'foobar')

Expected result:

Tag 'test_tag' in `result`.

Actual result: Tag 'est_tag' in `result`

kapacitor version: 1.5.1-1

Upd: same bug is with starting 's' for fields. f.e. state_duration become a 'tate_duration'.

Verify that tag names beginning with 't' and field names beginning with 's' retain their first characters, then confirm the expected names are written to the result measurement.
