/etc/collectd/conf.d is referenced in the default config so should be installed to prevent the following in syslog every boot:

Some collectd plugins launch third-party plugins that have variation in
initialisation time (like libpcap). Recently (since kernel bump to 4.1)
the DNS plugin has been causing collectd to crash semi-randomly at startup
on MIPS based WNDR3700.
Debugging led to realisation that the DNS plugin seems to require at least
0.1s time to start, before the first data reading attempt starts.
By default, the first data read cycle starts immediately, while apaprently
some of the plugins may still be asyncronously initialising. To make things
safe, this patch adds 1 second delay before the first data read cycle.

if a user's env has PERL_MM_OPT defined collect will fail to build. Adding
--with-perl-bindings="" will override this env var.

The config file shipped with collectd dates from 2010 and
leads to error messages if luci-statistics & collectd are installed,
as it references several plugins not usually installed, or such ones
that have been renamed since then.
For most users, this file is just a placeholder during collectd installation,
as /usr/bin/stat-genconfig from /etc/init.d/luci_statistics will overwrite it.
Sanitize and shorten the placeholder config file:
* Reference actively only the default plugins installed by luci statistics.
* Match the placeholder config with the genuine config from luci statistics.
If somebody uses collectd separately from luci statistics, he will need to
edit these settings anyway.
