cpu plugin doesn't work on osx

[zibuyu1995]

Relevant telegraf.conf:

[global_tags]
  dc = "denver-1"

[agent]
  interval = "10s"

# OUTPUTS
[[outputs.influxdb]]
  url = "http://192.168.59.103:8086" # required.
  database = "telegraf" # required.
  precision = "s"

# INPUTS
[[inputs.cpu]]
  percpu = true
  totalcpu = false
  # filter all fields beginning with 'time_'
  fielddrop = ["time_*"]

System info:

Mac OS 10.15
telegraf: 1.12.4

Expected behavior:

This is because our build doesn't have CGO enabled. As a workaround you can install from brew, or compile it on a MacOS system.

We have issue #4801 for enabling CGO in the tar.gz package, so I'm going to close this issue and we can track over there.
