data transformation engine for ingesting other data sources #812

Benthos is a golang project can can transform any data from various sources, and i think a starlark wrapper would be hugely valuable.

This would make it easy to also watch the foreign data sources and the Benthos transformation can run and only pick up new data and pump it into qri as a new revision of the data. SO its all should be self running essentially.

Benthos is plugable also.

Looks really interesting. I'll have a look at Benthos & report back here with a set of possible paths to integration. Hope to get to this this week

Looked at Benthos, it's great! Not so sure we need to write an integration at this time tho
