Description

Feature Request

Right now SQL Server plugin exposes only a total number of databases in pending/recovery/restoring/etc state. It would be nice to have a metric that reflects per-database state

Proposal:

Add metric that reflects state of each database (i.e online/offline/pending/etc)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing SQL Server plugin's metrics collection code. Identify how database state metrics are currently aggregated and implement per database state metrics following the plugin's pattern.
