Proposal: Move metric manipulation to the backend modules #104

Upon further reading, backends like influxdb 0.9 can support spaces and other characters that things like graphite can't. It would be useful to have the metric/tag manipulation done in each backend to allow full use of that backend's capabilities.

Optionally, a configuration section could be added to each backend config when character replacement needs to be performed.

Thoughts?
