Metric Alias File #50

Hello,
This feature wish maybe is similar to #49 and #30:

Like the annotation file, I would like a "metric human name" file, that is read and send as metric name to Grafana.

My use-case/example:
We've a generic RRD Statistic Collector (https://github.com/mschlenstedt/LoxBerry-Plugin-Stats4Lox) where we use incremental numbers for RRD files (0001, 0002,...) and manage the statistic name, entered by the user, in an own database.
Now, for the Grafana users it's difficult to find out what the metric 0034 is.

It would be nice, if there would be a "matching" file, e.g. for a 0024.rrd a 0024.inf file, that is read and holds a human readable name ("Outdoor temperature") sent as metric name.

Please correct me, if something like this is already possible!

Christian
