The parameter is defined at lib/fluent/plugin/in_tcp.rb:45-46
desc 'The payload is read up to this character.'
config_param :delimiter, :string, default: "\n"
but input/tcp.md only mentioned it in a comment of the example
configuration, with no section under "Parameters".
It is matched with String#index (in_tcp.rb:127), not as a pattern, so a
multi-character delimiter works; this was verified by sending
'{"k":"a"}||{"k":"b"}||' with `delimiter "||"`.
The interaction with message_length_limit follows in_tcp.rb:153-162, where
the buffer is cleared and `discard_till_next_delimiter` is set.
The parameter was introduced at fluent/fluentd#368
