Add support for InfluxQL

[danielwhatmuff]

Proposal

The new version of InfluxDB (v3.0/clustered) does not support Flux queries and therefore the existing scaler cannot be used. This proposal related to adding support for scaling based on an InfluxQL query either within the existing Influx scaler by extending it, possibly with an additional parameter e.g. queryType or in a new scaler altogether.

Scaler Source

Influxdb v3.0

Scaling Mechanics

An InfluxQL query

Authentication Source

API token

Anything else?

Would be good to get feedback on the approach and may be able to submit a PR

Hey!
This is a great idea! I guess that adding a new parameter to switch between old and new protocols makes sense.
Are you willing to work on this?

[danielwhatmuff]

ok great, yes either me or someone on my team can look at this

[danielwhatmuff]

@JorTurFer I've got this implemented now and its passing all the tests, we're just going to do some further testing with it deployed to a cluster/wired up to influx and then will raise a PR.
