Better Stack TCP monitors

The Better Stack compatibility API at /compat/betterstack now accepts monitor_type: "tcp" with url (the host) and port, and creates an Uptime check on tcp://<host>:<port>; the monitor returns its host and port as Better Stack does. A TCP monitor without port returns 400. A TCP monitor's host and port, and a change to or from tcp, can't be updated, because an Uptime check's URL is fixed: such a request returns 400 (a port must be sent with its url); delete the monitor and create a new one.
