Helm chart name and version:

Issue when working with mqtt-exporter.

What steps did you take and what happened:

Possible missing section? mqtt-exporter section below indicates to check @default -- See values.yaml

metrics:
  # -- Enable and configure a Prometheus serviceMonitor for the chart under this key.
  # @default -- See values.yaml
  enabled: false
  serviceMonitor:
    # -- Interval at which Prometheus should scrape metrics
    interval: 30s
    # -- Timeout after which the scrape is ended
    scrapeTimeout: 10s
    # -- Additional labels for the Kubernetes `ServiceMonitor` object
    labels: {}

When I review the common/values.yaml there is nothing about metrics or serviceMonitor in it, seems like there should be.

What did you expect to happen:

Expected to see metrics section within the common values.yaml

Anything else you would like to add:

The mqtt-exporter chart, creates a service for no clear reason I could see, I assume that is for the serviceMonitor. This seems incorrect. a PodMonitor should be used for applications that do not require a service. It's not clear if a PodMonitor is supported since the metrics section is missing.

When I curl against the serviceMonitor, I get data back but there is really nothing about MQTT included:

$ k get svc -n mosquitto

There is nothing about the broker, clients connected, etc. which I assume there should be?

The exporter is connected and subscribed to the broker:

INFO:mqtt-exporter:subscribing to "#"
