This should improve the readability and usefullness of the /api/v1/status/top_queries when debugging slow queries
or queries that take too much cpu time.
- Support durations anywhere in MetricsQL queries. E.g. sum_over_time(m[1h])/1h is equivalent to sum_over_time(m[1h])/3600
- Support durations without suffix. E.g. rate(m[300]) is equivalent to rate(m[5m])
This should reduce resource usage (CPU, RAM, disk IO) at vmstorage nodes
if the addresses of vmstorage nodes are passed in random order to vminsert nodes.
* Change default value of '-remoteWrite.queues' to cgroup.AvailableCPUS() * 2 to reduce scrape interval
Default value of vmagent option '-remotewrite.queues' is 4 and default
size of vmagent ScheudleUnmarshalWorkers is number of CPUs, when available
CPUs is much greater than 4, e.g 32, worker are competing push queues
which will increase scrape interval and may cause scrape timeout.
* Update README and flag description

Due to staleness handling, increase_pure were using incorrect previous value
during calculation in cases where series disappears for period longer
than staleness period and then returns back. The fix suppose to account
for a real datapoint value before staleness takes place. The fix should
remove unexpected spikes while using `increase_pure` for staled series.
This panic can be raised by the reverseProxy on aborted request to the backend.
So handle it (e.g. suppress) at reverseProxy.ServeHTTP call.
Do not suppress the panic at lib/httpserver generic HTTP handler,
since it may result in an inconsistent state left after the panicking handler.

* vmalert: fix mistake with object reuse while parsing response
During the refactoring, the wrong optimisations was applied in
parse function which caused metric fields reset. The change removes
optimisation.

* vmalert: add test to cover multiple metrics in one response
* vmalert: support rules backfilling (aka `replay`)
vmalert can `replay` configured rules in the past
and backfill results via remote write protocol.
It supports MetricsQL/PromQL storage as data source,
and can backfill data to remote write compatible
storage.
Supports recording and alerting rules `replay`. See more
details in README.

* vmalert: review fixes
* vmalert: readme fixes
* new feature: relabel logging
Use scrape_configs[x].relabel_debug = true to log metric names inkl.
labels before and after relabeling. After relabeling related metrics
get dropped, i.e. not submitted to servers.
* vminsert wants relabel logging, too.
New flag `-rule.configCheckInterval` defines how often `vmalert` will re-read
config file. If it detects any changes, the config will be reloaded.
This behaviour is turned off by default.

The new setting `extra_filter_labels` may be assigned to group.
If it is, then all rules within a group will automatically filter
for configured labels. The feature is well-described here
https://docs.victoriametrics.com#prometheus-querying-api-enhancements
New setting is compatible only with VM datasource.
* changes vmalert query function
for prometheus rules compatibility its better to use labels as map.
it simplifies template evaluation and allow to ignore can't evaluate field error
because map will return default value.
fixes https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/operator/issues/243
These numbers are exposed via the following metrics:
- vmagent_hourly_series_limit_current_series
- vmagent_daily_series_limit_current_series
Expose also the limits via the following metrics:
- vmagent_hourly_series_limit_max_series
- vmagent_daily_series_limit_max_series
The `::tag` type is needed in cases when field and tag names are equal, which
results into unexpected results in InfluxQL. Setting the type explicitly helps
InfluxDB to understand which exact column we apply filter to.

duplicates map helps to determine wheter extra labels has overriden
labels which make time series unique. It was using a sorted hashed
labels sequence as a key. But hashing algorithm could have collisions,
so it is more convenient to not use hashing at all.
Log message for recording rules duplicates was improved as well.
https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1293
Starting from v1.56.0 VM supports `round_digits` which allows to limit
the number of digits after the decimal point in response value. The feature
can be used to reduce entropy of produced by recording rules values
and significantly improve the compression. See more details in link below.

Previously, `startGroup` could exit on restore errors despite the
`remoteRead.ignoreRestoreErrors` flag value. Now vmalert checks the
flag value before deciding whether to return error or just log it.
Alerting rules now can return specific error type ErrStateRestore to indicate
whether restore state procedure failed. Such errors were returned and logged
before as well. But now user can specify whether to just log these errors
(remoteRead.ignoreRestoreErrors=true) or to stop the process
(remoteRead.ignoreRestoreErrors=false). The latter is important when VM isn't
ready yet to serve queries from vmalert and it needs to wait.

* Simplify arguments list for fn `queryDataSource` to improve readbility
* vmalert: adjust `time` param according to rule evaluation interval
With this change, vmalert will start to use rule's evaluation interval
for truncating the `time` param. This is mostly needed to produce consistent
time series with timestamps unaffected by vmalert start time. Now, timestamp
becomes predictable.
Additionally, adjustment is similar to what Grafana does for plotting range graphs.
Hence, recording rule series and recording rule expression plotted in grafana
suppose to become similar in most of cases.
* changes vmalert Querier with per rule querier
it allows to changes some parametrs based on rule setting
for instance - alert type, tenant for cluster version or event endpoint url.
Previously, vmalert used `lastExecTime` timestamp when writing recording rules
to the remote storage. This may be incorrect, if vmalert uses `datasource.lookback` flag,
which means rule's expression will be executed at some moment in the past.
To avoid such situations, vmalert now will use returned timestamp instead of `lastExecTime`.
This should increase block sizes and subsequently increase the maximum possible bandwidth per each connection to remote storage.
This, in turn, should reduce the probability of storing the data in local buffers.
