Is your feature request related to a problem?

Currently we have two different sysmon's, one for osx, another for everything else, one is written in golang (osx), the other in rust and uses the sysinfo crate. This is probably going to be one of our most used features on the platform for monitoring systems, there are perfectly good golang libraries that do all of the same things as sysinfo, and allow us to move everything into one codebase.

What we need to create is a new /pkg/sysmon library in pure-go that incorporates the sysmon-osx stuff and basically uses the same data structures as the rust serviceradar-sysmon package so we can integrate it back into SR easily.

This library will then become part of serviceradar-agent and part of the consolidation around moving the standalone golang-based checkers (snmp-checker, mapper, etc) into one installation package for the end-user.
