If timestamp is missing in `<metric> <value> <timestamp>` Prometheus exposition format line, then the current timestamp is used during data ingestion.

It can be overriden by passing unix timestamp in seconds via `timestamp` query arg. The value may be fractional when millisecond precision is needed. It can be overriden by passing unix timestamp in *milliseconds* via `timestamp` query arg. For example, `/api/v1/import/prometheus?timestamp=1594370496905`.
For example, `/api/v1/import/prometheus?timestamp=1594370496.905`.
