Fixed issue with check monitor requests stalling

mackerel-agent used to wait for 30 seconds before sending the next check monitor results to Mackerel when the queue holding unsent check monitor results was full in order to prevent a large number of requests from being sent at once. Because of that, in an environment with many check monitor settings, the queue could not be handled and kept growing when sending caches that had accumulated after Mackerel maintenance.

The mackerel-agent v0.73.0 release was tuned to increase the number of check monitor results that can be sent at once and shorten the waiting time in order to prevent requests from getting stalled.

This is due to feedback from our users. Thank you for your contribution!

Fixed issue with check-disk accessing the fuse.portal filesystem and causing an error

In go-check-plugins v0.42.2, check-disk has been modified to skip accessing the fuse.portal filesystem. This operation is equivalent to GNU Coreutils.
