[lfx-mentorship-2025-Mar-May] Metrics for TCP Long Connection

[LiZhenCheng9527]

• Description: Currently, Kmesh metrics are only reported when a TCP connection is closed. In the case of long connections, it is not possible to know the status before the connection is closed. Therefore, we hope to add the capability to periodically report metrics for long connections.
• Expected Outcome:
  • proposal
  • code
  • user guide.
• Recommended Skills: go, c, eBPF
• Mentor(s): @nlgwcy ([email protected])
