### Describe Your Changes
> (currently in DRAFT) This dashboard and the docs may look differently
after recent review and the feedback received.
As requested by our customers, this PR introduces `anomaly score`-based
dashboard for `vmanomaly` to improve the visual experience and ease the
drill down debugging process for respective anomaly detection setups.
Accompanying guide (under `default` preset mode) is provided as well.
- [For additional
benefits](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics-datasource/#motivation),
the dashboard is based on [VictoriaMetrics
datasource](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics-datasource/)
rather than on `Prometheus` datasource
- Tested locally and on our https://play.victoriametrics.com/
`anomaly_score` data (tenant ID 0)
- To check the guide, build the docs locally (`vmdocs`, `make run
local`) and follow to the
http://localhost:1313/anomaly-detection/presets/#default section

Previously if rule group parameters were changed, alerting rules related metrics could be deleted due to bug at `utils/metrics` package.
This commit introduces `metrics.Set` per rule group. It holds group and alerting rules metrics. It properly unregister alerting rules metrics and addresses issue.
In addition:
- expose group metrics only once group is started - this helps to avoid
exposing metrics for groups which are created during YAML unmarshaling
and only used to update existing group.
- properly close rules which are discarded after updating existing rules
so that metrics are also correctly closed.
- detect file renames and properly recreate groups "moved" between files.

Examples:
- `top 5 x, y` is equivalent to `top 5 by (x, y)`
- `uniq foo, bar` is equivalent to `uniq by (foo, bar)`
- `unroll foo, bar` is equivalent to `unroll (foo, bar)`
_time:<=max_time filter must include logs with timestamps matching max_time.
For example, _time:<=2025-02-24Z must include logs with timestamps until the end of February 24, 2025.
Examples:
_time:>=2025-02-24Z selects logs with timestamps bigger or equal to 2025-02-24 UTC
_time:>1d selects logs with timestamps older than one day comparing to the current time
This simplifies writing queries with _time filters.

It looks like the version deployed works differently than in local, and
some paths are not taken correctly. This commit fixes that by adding
absolute paths to the 2 images included in this section.

Legend settings have been added to **Graph Settings**.
#### **New Features:**
1. **Table View** – Toggle to display the legend in a table format.
2. **Hide Common Values** – Option to hide fields with identical values
across all series.
3. **Hide Min/Medium/Max** – Ability to hide min, median, and max values
from the legend.
4. **Custom Label Format** – Set a custom format for series labels
(applies only to the legend).
5. **Group by Label** – Group legend entries based on a selected label.

Currently, vmalert uses a fixed 10-second client timeout for notifiers,
which can prevent large sets of alerts from being sent successfully.
This introduces `-notifier.sendTimeout` flag to vmalert to control the
client timeout duration for the notifiers.

Inside PARAM-VALUE, the characters '"' (ABNF %d34), '\' (ABNF %d92),
and ']' (ABNF %d93) MUST be escaped. This is necessary to avoid
parsing errors. Escaping ']' would not strictly be necessary but is
REQUIRED by this specification to avoid syslog application
implementation errors. Each of these three characters MUST be
escaped as '\"', '\\', and '\]' respectively. The backslash is used
for control character escaping for consistency with its use for
escaping in other parts of the syslog message as well as in traditional syslog.

Use `rate_sum` instead of `total` output for the following reasons:
* `rate_sum` is far less sensitive for data delays than `total`, since
it represents the speed of change instead of absolute values.
* `rate_sum` remove need in using `rate` function for calculating final
results on query time.

### Describe Your Changes
By default, stream aggregation and deduplication stores a single state
per each aggregation output result.
The data for each aggregator is flushed independently once per
aggregation interval. But there's no guarantee that
incoming samples with timestamps close to the aggregation interval's end
will get into it. For example, when aggregating
with `interval: 1m` a data sample with timestamp 1739473078 (18:57:59)
can fall into aggregation round `18:58:00` or `18:59:00`.
It depends on network lag, load, clock synchronization, etc. In most
scenarios it doesn't impact aggregation or
deduplication results, which are consistent within margin of error. But
for metrics represented as a collection of series,
like
[histograms](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyconcepts/#histogram),
such inaccuracy leads to invalid aggregation results.
For this case, streaming aggregation and deduplication support mode with
aggregation windows for current and previous state. With this mode,
flush doesn't happen immediately but is shifted by a calculated samples
lag that improves correctness for delayed data.
Enabling of this mode has increased resource usage: memory usage is
expected to double as aggregation will store two states
instead of one. However, this significantly improves accuracy of
calculations. Aggregation windows can be enabled via
the following settings:
- `-streamAggr.enableWindows` at [single-node
VictoriaMetrics](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/single-server-victoriametrics/)
and [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent/). At
[vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent/)
`-remoteWrite.streamAggr.enableWindows` flag can be specified
individually per each `-remoteWrite.url`.
If one of these flags is set, then all aggregators will be using fixed
windows. In conjunction with `-remoteWrite.streamAggr.dedupInterval` or
`-streamAggr.dedupInterval` fixed aggregation windows are enabled on
deduplicator as well.
- `enable_windows` option in [aggregation
config](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/stream-aggregation/#stream-aggregation-config).
It allows enabling aggregation windows for a specific aggregator.

### Describe Your Changes
This PR introduces several enhancements and optimizations for the Group
view:
1. **Disable hover effect:**
Add the option to disable the hover effect. This can help reduce CPU
load when viewing a large number of logs.
2. **Limit entries per Group:**
Add the ability to limit the number of records displayed per group. When
a limit is set, groups are rendered sequentially – the next group starts
only after the current group has finished. By default, there is no
limit.
3. **Display group info:**
Include the group number in the title along with the total count of
groups to improve clarity and navigation.
4. **Performance improvement:**
In addition to the features above, separate optimizations reduce CPU
load during hover interactions by approximately 5-10%.
