out_datadog: Add support for setting a static hostname

This PR adds support for setting a static hostname in the Datadog output
plugin. This field is analogous to the existing `dd_service` and
`dd_source` configuration options that can be used to set a static
value.

If unset, the default behavior is backwards compatible. This behavior is
to not set an explicity `hostname` field, but if the record has a field
that is detected as the hostname in Datadog (such as `host` or
`syslog.hostname`), it will be picked up.

Closes: #8971
