Send Vector logs and metrics to Datadog

In this demo, Vector is running a simple topology in which the generator source emits random JSON logs twice per second and sends those logs off to stdout via the console sink. But even this simple pipeline is enough to generate internal logs and metrics for Vector (via the eponymous sources).

To run this scenario, make sure you have the DD_API_KEY environment variable set to your Datadog API key and then run:

docker compose up --detach

Once Vector is up and running, check out the Logs exporer and this simple Metrics dashboard.
