lib/logstorage: optimize 'stats by(...)' calculations for by(...) fields with millions of unique values on multi-CPU systems

- Parallelize merging of per-CPU `stats by(...)` result shards.
- Parallelize writing `stats by(...)` results to the next pipe.

## tip
* FEATURE: add basic [alerting rules](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/deployment/docker/alerts-vlogs.yml) for VictoriaLogs process. See details at [monitoring docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/index.html#monitoring).
* FEATURE: improve [`top` pipe](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/logsql/#top-pipe) performance on multi-CPU hosts when it is applied to [log fields](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/keyconcepts/#data-model) with big number of unique values. For example, `_time:1d | top 5 (user_id)` should be executed much faster now when `user_id` field contains millions of unique values.
* FEATURE: improve [`stats` pipe](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/logsql/#stats-pipe) performance on systems with many CPU cores when `by(...)` fields contain big number of unique values. For example, `_time:1d | stats by (user_id) count() x` should be executed much faster when `user_id` field contains millions of unique values.
