HTTP exporter can listen on unix domain socket (UDS) as well as TCP #498

HTTP over Unix Domain Sockets is useful in situations where the thing exposing telemetry does not have networking configured, but does have easy shared disk.

In my use case, this occurs because we run a container without external networking, but still want to collect telemetry from the container. This is trivial with a Unix Domain Socket mounted in a volume share.
