Research direction

Start by following the documented build steps for the fluent-bit master code and reproduce the missing mk_core/mk_core_info.h error. Inspect fluent-bit/lib/monkey/include/monkey/mk_core.h and the generated out_stdout2 build target; done means the plugin compiles successfully without this missing-header failure.
