The matomo folks maintain a python etl script that uses the same api as the javascript tracker. To send our nginx log data to matomo, we need to

• add a syslog container to twlight
• configure twlight nginx to ship logs there
• continuously run the etl script on the syslog container

Our matomo instance will treat this exactly like it would incoming javascript client data, so there won't need to be any changes there. We won't be dumping log files onto external storage, so there are no new log retention concerns.
