The default size of `indexdb/tagFilters` now can be overridden via
`storage.cacheSizeIndexDBTagFilters` flag.
Please, be careful with changing default size since it may
lead to inefficient work of the vmstorage or OOM exceptions.

* lib/index: reduce read/write load after indexDB rotation
IndexDB in VM is responsible for storing TSID - ID's used for identifying
time series. The index is stored on disk and used by both ingestion and read path.
IndexDB is stored separately to data parts and is global for all stored data.
It can't be deleted partially as VM deletes data parts. Instead, indexDB is
rotated once in `retention` interval.
The rotation procedure means that `current` indexDB becomes `previous`,
and new freshly created indexDB struct becomes `current`. So in any time,
VM holds indexDB for current and previous retention periods.
When time series is ingested or queried, VM checks if its TSID is present
in `current` indexDB. If it is missing, it checks the `previous` indexDB.
If TSID was found, it gets copied to the `current` indexDB. In this way
`current` indexDB stores only series which were active during the retention
period.
To improve indexDB lookups, VM uses a cache layer called `tsidCache`. Both
write and read path consult `tsidCache` and on miss the relad lookup happens.
When rotation happens, VM resets the `tsidCache`. This is needed for ingestion
path to trigger `current` indexDB re-population. Since index re-population
requires additional resources, every index rotation event may cause some extra
load on CPU and disk. While it may be unnoticeable for most of the cases,
for systems with very high number of unique series each rotation may lead
to performance degradation for some period of time.
This PR makes an attempt to smooth out resource usage after the rotation.
The changes are following:
1. `tsidCache` is no longer reset after the rotation;
2. Instead, each entry in `tsidCache` gains a notion of indexDB to which
they belong;
3. On ingestion path after the rotation we check if requested TSID was
found in `tsidCache`. Then we have 3 branches:
3.1 Fast path. It was found, and belongs to the `current` indexDB. Return TSID.
3.2 Slow path. It wasn't found, so we generate it from scratch,
add to `current` indexDB, add it to `tsidCache`.
3.3 Smooth path. It was found but does not belong to the `current` indexDB.
In this case, we add it to the `current` indexDB with some probability.
The probability is based on time passed since the last rotation with some threshold.
The more time has passed since rotation the higher is chance to re-populate `current` indexDB.
The default re-population interval in this PR is set to `1h`, during which entries from
`previous` index supposed to slowly re-populate `current` index.
The new metric `vm_timeseries_repopulated_total` was added to identify how many TSIDs
were moved from `previous` indexDB to the `current` indexDB. This metric supposed to
grow only during the first `1h` after the last rotation.

Previously bytesutil.Resize() was copying the original byte slice contents to a newly allocated slice.
This wasted CPU cycles and memory bandwidth in some places, where the original slice contents wasn't needed
after slize resizing. Switch such places to bytesutil.ResizeNoCopy().
Rename the original bytesutil.Resize() function to bytesutil.ResizeWithCopy() for the sake of improved readability.
Additionally, allocate new slice with `make()` instead of `append()`. This guarantees that the capacity of the allocated slice
exactly matches the requested size. The `append()` could return a slice with bigger capacity as an optimization for further `append()` calls.
This could result in excess memory usage when the returned byte slice was cached (for instance, in lib/blockcache).
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2007
Previously these caches could exceed limits set via `-memory.allowedPercent` and/or `-memory.allowedBytes`,
since limits were set independently per each data part. If the number of data parts was big, then limits could be exceeded,
which could result to out of memory errors.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2007
The vm_cache_size_max_bytes metric can be used for determining caches which reach their capacity via the following query:
vm_cache_size_bytes / vm_cache_size_max_bytes > 0.9
* adds read-only mode for vmstorage
https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/269
* changes order a bit
* moves isFreeDiskLimitReached var to storage struct
renames functions to be consistent
change protoparser api - with optional storage limit check for given openned storage
* renames freeSpaceLimit to ReadOnly
* Rename -search.maxMetricsPointSearch to -search.maxSamplesPerQuery, so it is more consistent with the existing -search.maxSamplesPerSeries
* Move the -search.maxSamplesPerQuery from vmstorage to vmselect, so it could effectively limit the number of raw samples obtained from all the vmstorage nodes
* Document the -search.maxSamplesPerQuery in docs/CHANGELOG.md
This option can be useful when samples for the same time series are ingested with distinct order of labels.
For example, metric{k1="v1",k2="v2"} and metric{k2="v2",k1="v1"}.
Remove the code that uses metricIDs caches for the current and the previous hour during metricIDs search,
since this code became unused after implementing per-day inverted index almost a year ago.
While at it, fix a bug, which could prevent from finding time series with names containing dots (aka Graphite-like names
such as `foo.bar.baz`).
Previously vmstorage could use only a single CPU core for data processing from a single connection from vminsert.
Now all the CPU cores can be used for data processing from a single connection from vminsert.
This should improve the maximum data ingestion performance for a single vminsert->vmstorage connection.
This should reduce disk space usage when scraping targets containing metrics with identical names
such as `node_cpu_seconds_total`, histograms, quantiles, etc.
Expose `vm_timestamps_blocks_merged_total` and `vm_timestamps_bytes_saved_total` metrics for monitoring
the effectiveness of timestamp blocks merging.
Previously the time spent on inverted index search could exceed the configured `-search.maxQueryDuration`.
This commit stops searching in inverted index on query timeout.
Heavy queries could result in the lack of CPU resources for processing the current data ingestion stream.
Prevent this by delaying queries' execution until free resources are available for data ingestion.
Expose `vm_search_delays_total` metric, which may be used in for alerting when there is no enough CPU resources
for data ingestion and/or for executing heavy queries.

Previously it was possible that the connection is served after the server is closed if the following
steps are performed:
1) Server accepts new connection.
2) Server.MustClose() is called and successfully finished.
3) Server starts processing the connection accepted at step 1. There could be various crashes
like in https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/534 since the storage may be already closed.
Now the server closes the connection at step 3 without processing it.
Previously the duration for graceful shutdown for http server could take more than a minute
because of imporperly set timeouts in setNetworkTimeout.
Now typical duration for graceful shutdown should be reduced to less than 5 seconds.
This should protect from possible data loss when `vmstorage` is stopped while the packet is sent from `vminsert`.
This commit switches to new protocol between vminsert and vmstorage, which is incompatible
with the previous protocol. So it is required that both vminsert and vmstorage nodes are updated.
This eliminates the need for storing block data into temporary files on a single-node VictoriaMetrics
during heavy queries, which touch big number of time series over long time ranges.
This improves single-node VM performance on heavy queries by up to 2x.
Such filters must match all the time series with `label="foo"` plus all the time series without `label`
Previously only time series with `label="foo"` were matched.
The metricID->metricName entry can be missing in the indexdb after unclean shutdown
when only a part of entries for new time series is written into indexdb.
Recover from such a situation by removing the broken metricID. New metricID
will be automatically created for time series with the given metricName
when new data point will arive to it.
Production workload shows that the index requires ~4Kb of RAM per active time series.
This is too much for high number of active time series, so let's delete this index.
Now the queries should fall back to the index for the current day instead of the index
for the recent hour. The query performance for the current day index should be good enough
given the 100M rows/sec scan speed per CPU core.
Issues fixed:
- Slow startup times. Now the index is loaded from cache during start.
- High memory usage related to superflouos index copies every 10 seconds.
Continue trying to remove NFS directory on temporary errors for up to a minute.
The previous async removal process breaks in the following case during VictoriaMetrics start
- VictoriaMetrics opens index, finds incomplete merge transactions and starts replaying them.
- The transaction instructs removing old directories for parts, which were already merged into bigger part.
- VictoriaMetrics removes these directories, but their removal is delayed due to NFS errors.
- VictoriaMetrics scans partition directory after all the incomplete merge transactions are finished
and finds directories, which should be removed, but weren't still removed due to NFS errors.
- VictoriaMetrics panics when it finds unexpected empty directory.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/162
The origin of the error has been detected and documented in the code,
so it is enough to export a counter for such errors at `vm_index_blocks_with_metric_ids_incorrect_order_total`,
so it could be monitored and alerted on high error rates.
Export also the counter for processed index blocks with metricIDs - `vm_index_blocks_with_metric_ids_processed_total`,
so its' rate could be compared to `rate(vm_index_blocks_with_metric_ids_incorrect_order_total)`.
Track also the number of dropped rows due to the exceeded timeout
on concurrency limit for Storage.AddRows. This number is tracked in `vm_concurrent_addrows_dropped_rows_total`
This should improve speed for searching metrics among high number of time series
with high churn rate like in big Kubernetes clusters with frequent deployments.
