* docs(telegraf): add missing serializer documentation
Add documentation for missing output data formats (serializers):
- binary: Binary protocol serialization with configurable entries
- cloudevents: CloudEvents JSON format (v0.3 and v1.0)
- csv: Comma-separated values with configurable columns
- prometheus: Prometheus text exposition format
- prometheusremotewrite: Prometheus protobuf for remote write
- wavefront: Wavefront data format
Also fixes:
- Rename messagepack.md to msgpack.md to match Telegraf source
This completes the serializer documentation coverage.

* docs(telegraf): add design plan for batch format documentation
Defines documentation changes to clarify:
- Output plugin vs serializer relationship
- use_batch_format option location and purpose
- Histogram/summary handling with prometheus_client
- Choosing the right output approach
* docs(telegraf): clarify output plugins, serializers, and batch format
- Add "How output plugins use serializers" section explaining the
relationship between output plugins and data formats
- Add "Choosing an output approach" guidance by destination and metric type
- Create prometheus serializer doc with histogram/summary guidance
- Add "Use this plugin for..." sections to prometheus_client
- Add Data formats subsection to configuration.md
- Expand output plugins index with serializer relationship
Addresses confusion about use_batch_format being an output plugin option
rather than a serializer option, and provides clear guidance on when to
use prometheus_client vs the prometheus serializer.
