Research direction
Examine the existing Slack notification integration in the repository (likely in a file like 'alerters/slack.py') to understand the pattern. Use the provided Hipchat API documentation to implement a similar alerter that sends alerts via Hipchat. The implementation should follow the same interface as the Slack alerter and include appropriate configuration options.
