Description

It would be useful to support the Graphite Pickle protocol.

Looks like there is a Go library that does this already. Shouldn't be to hard to implement.

Research direction

Start with the linked Graphite Pickle protocol documentation and the referenced graphite-pickle Go library to understand the wire format and expected behavior. Then inspect the repository's existing Graphite handling; done means the exporter accepts Pickle protocol input and exposes the resulting metrics alongside its current supported input.
