 * 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).
