vmui: added query tracing (#2748)

* vmui: added query tracing

* vmui: updated ui

* vmui: update tracing logic, fix bugs, disable tracing by default

* vmui: use empty message as props

* vmui: fixed ui, added delete for each tacing data, show query in header

* vmui: added timelines

* vmui: speedup render

* vmui: use memo for sorting

* vmui: use Trace model, remove unused functions, simplify part of code

* vmui: update recursive logic

* vmui: fix set query to header

* vmui: code cleanup, remove unused code

* vmui: remove unused type, rename component

* wip

VictoriaMetrics provides UI for query troubleshooting and exploration. The UI is available at `http://victoriametrics:8428/vmui`.
The UI allows exploring query results via graphs and tables. It also provides support for [cardinality explorer](#cardinality-explorer).

## Query tracing
VictoriaMetrics supports query tracing, which can be used for determining bottlenecks during query processing.
This is like `EXPLAIN ANALYZE` from Postgresql.
Query tracing can be enabled for a specific query by passing `trace=1` query arg.
In this case VictoriaMetrics puts query trace into `trace` field in the output JSON.

Query tracing is allowed by default. It can be denied by passing `-denyQueryTracing` command-line flag to VictoriaMetrics.
[VMUI](#vmui) provides an UI for query tracing - just click `Enable query tracing` checkbox and re-run the query in order to investigate its' trace.

* FEATURE: add `-search.setLookbackToStep` command-line flag, which enables InfluxDB-like gap filling during querying. See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/guides/migrate-from-influx.html) for details.
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): add ability to specify additional HTTP headers to send to scrape targets via `headers` section in `scrape_configs`. This can be used when the scrape target requires custom authorization and authentication like in [this stackoverflow question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66032498/prometheus-scrape-metric-with-custom-header). For example, the following config instructs sending `My-Auth: top-secret` and `TenantID: FooBar` headers with each request to `http://host123:8080/metrics`:
* FEATURE: [vmui](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#vmui): add an UI for [query tracing](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#query-tracing). It can be enabled by clicking `enable query tracing` checkbox and re-running the query. See [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2703).
