Description
It would be nice to have support for RSS/Atom feeds as a source for Vector. It could periodically pull the feed and generate new events as they appear in the feed.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing Vector's existing source implementations and source documentation, then determine how periodic RSS/Atom polling and new-feed-item events should fit the project. Done means a supported RSS/Atom source that polls feeds and emits newly appearing items as events.
