lib/license: cleanups and prettifications for log messages and docs related to licensing - Make more clear the docs at docs/enterprise.md, so readers could figure out faster on how to obtain enterprise key and how to pass it to VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components. - Fix examples at docs/enterprise.md, which were referring to non-existing `-license-file` command-line flag. The `-licenseFile` command-line flag must be used instead. - Improve the description of `-license*` command-line flags, so users could understand faster how to use them. - Improve the warning message, which is emitted when the deprecated -eula command-line flag is passed, so the user could figure out how to switch faster to -license* command-line flags. - Disallow running VictoriaMetrics components with both -license and -licenseFile command-line flags. - Disallow running VictoriaMetrics components when -licensFile points to an empty file. - Consistently use the phrase "This flag is available only in Enterprise binaries" across all the enterprise-specific command-line flags. - Remove unneeded level of indirection for `noLicenseMessage` and `expiredMessage` string contants in order to improve code readability and maintainability. - Remove unneded `return` statements after `logger.Fatalf()` calls, since these calls exit the app and never return. - Make sure that the info log message about successful license verification is emitted when the license is verified successfully. Previously the error message could be logged when the license payload is invalid or if it misses some required features.

VictoriaMetrics community components are open source and are free to use - see [the source code](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/)
and [the license](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/LICENSE).
docs: use https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/latest instead of https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases link where needed The https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases link may show non-latest releases at the top, such as LTS releases or VictoriaLogs releases. So it is better to use https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/latest link, which always redirect to the latest available release of VictoriaMetrics.

The `-eula` command-line flag is deprecated starting from `v1.94.0` release in favor of new command-line flags:
* `-license` - this flag accepts VictoriaMetrics Enterprise license key, which can be obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/)
* `-licenseFile` - this flag accepts a path to file with VictoriaMetrics Enterprise license key,
which can be obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/) . Use either `-license` or `-licenseFile`, but not both.
* `-license.forceOffline` - enables offline verification of VictoriaMetrics Enterprise license key. Contact us via [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/)
if you need license key, which can be verified offline without the need to connect to VictoriaMetrics license server.
For example, the following command runs VictoriaMetrics Enterprise binary with the Enterprise license
obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/):

lib/license: cleanups and prettifications for log messages and docs related to licensing - Make more clear the docs at docs/enterprise.md, so readers could figure out faster on how to obtain enterprise key and how to pass it to VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components. - Fix examples at docs/enterprise.md, which were referring to non-existing `-license-file` command-line flag.

In order to run VictoriaMetrics Enterprise helm chart it is required to provide the license key via `license` value in `values.yaml` file
and adjust the image tag to the Enterprise one as described [here](#docker-images).
Enterprise license key can be obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/).

It is allowed to run VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components in [cases listed here](#valid-cases-for-victoriametrics-enterprise).
VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components can be deployed via [VictoriaMetrics operator](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/operator/).
In order to use Enterprise components it is required to provide the license key via `license` field and adjust the image tag to the enterprise one.
Enterprise license key can be obtained at [this page](https://victoriametrics.com/products/enterprise/trial/).
