app/vmselect/promql: properly handle precision errors in rollup functions

changes(), increases_over_time() and resets() shouldn't take into account
value changes, which may occur because of precision errors.

The maximum guaranteed precision for raw samples stored in VictoriaMetrics is 12 decimal digits.
So do not count relative changes for values if they are smaller than 1e-12 comparing to the value.

* SECURITY: upgrade Go builder from Go1.21.6 to Go1.21.7. See [the list of issues addressed in Go1.21.7](https://github.com/golang/go/issues?q=milestone%3AGo1.21.7+label%3ACherryPickApproved).
* BUGFIX: [MetricsQL](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/MetricsQL.html): properly propagate [label filters](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#filtering) from multiple arguments passed to [aggregate functions](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/metricsql/#aggregate-functions). For example, `sum({job="foo"}, {job="bar"}) by (job) + a` was improperly optimized to `sum({job="foo"}, {job="bar"}) by (job) + a{job="foo"}` before being executed. This could lead to unexpected results. See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5604).
* BUGFIX: [MetricsQL](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/MetricsQL.html): properly handle precision errors when calculating [changes](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/metricsql/#changes), [changes_prometheus](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/metricsql/#changes_prometheus), [increases_over_time](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/metricsql/#increases_over_time) and [resets](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/metricsql/#resets) functions.
