Feature: Provide connection load sensor
Add a sensor for number of open connections. This is an indication for the number of requests the system must handle, and possibly if connections are stalling.

See [``psutil.net_connections``](https://psutil.readthedocs.io/en/latest/#psutil.net_connections) for a potential backend.
