Add support for the collection.* metrics to the MongoDB Atlas/Datadog integration
Currently the MongoDB Atlas integration with Datadog does not support the collection.* metrics.
As we use Datadog as our monitoring and analytics tool company-wide, we cannot create the needed dashboards unless we create our own app retrieving the metrics and pushing them to Datadog. This is not ideal.

Hi all, the Atlas DataDog integration now supports sending database and collection-level metrics to DataDog. We do not have this enabled by default as it does send potentially sensitive database and collection names to an external platform. However, you can opt into sending database and collection metrics to DataDog via the Atlas project integrations panel or via the API. Please see our documentation for more information (https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/tutorial/datadog-integration/#performance-metrics-available-to-datadog)
Thank you!

This functionality would allow us to separate the different metrics at the collection level, since we have common clusters for different workloads.
