This fixes handling of values bigger than 2GiB for the following command-line flags:
- -storage.minFreeDiskSpaceBytes
- -remoteWrite.maxDiskUsagePerURL
The recent change in modifying default value
of `datasource.queryStep` flag resulted in situation
where replay mode was always running queries with
step=`datasource.queryStep`. When it should always
use rule's evaluation interval.
The fix is related not to replay mode only, but
for all Range requests. Now step param is set
individually for each mode.

* vmalert: correctly return error for RW failures

Previously the `quotesEscape` function was escaping only double quotes.
This wasn't enough, since the input string could contain other special chars,
which must be escaped when put inside JSON string. For example, carriage return and line feed chars (\n\r),
backslash char, etc. This led to the following issues, which were improperly fixed:
- https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/890 - this issue
was "fixed" by introducing the `crlfEscape` function, which led to unnecessary
complications in user templates, while not fixing various corner cases
such as backslash chars in the input string.
See 1de15ad490
- https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3139 - this issue
was "fixed" by urlencoding the whole string passed to -external.alert.source
command-line flag. This led to invalid urls, which couldn't be parsed by Grafana.
See 00c838353d
and 4bd0244599
This commit properly encodes the input string passed to `quotesEscape`, so it can be safely embedded inside JSON strings.
This commit deprecates crlfEscape template function and adds the following new template functions:
- strvalue and stripDomain - these functions are supported by Prometheus, so they were added
for compatibility purposes.
- jsonEscape and htmlEscape for converting the input string to valid quoted JSON string
and for html-escaping the input string, so it could be safely embedded as a plaintext
into html.
This commit also documents all supported template functions at https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmalert.html#template-functions
The deprecated crlfEscape function isn't documented on purpose, since its usefulness is negative in general case.
The message about dropped data still remains at `error` level.
The change supposed to make log message more clear about how
serious it is.

- Clarify the description for -datasource.queryStep command-line flag
- Consistently use a single dash in front of -datasource.queryStep command-line flag
- Update -help output at docs/vmalert.md
Change default value for command-line flag `datasource.queryStep` from `0s` to `5m`.
Param `step` is added by vmalert to every rule evaluation request sent to datasource.
Before this change, `step` was equal to group's evaluation interval by default.
Param `step` for instant queries defines how far VM can look back for the last written data point.
The change supposed to improve reliability of the rules evaluation when evaluation interval
is lower than scraping interval.

* vmalert: always re-evaluate Annotations
Previously, Annotations were evaluated only:
1. On alert creating.
2. On alert's value change.
This is premature optimization. It was assumed that since annotations
could contain only text with alert's labels or value - there is no need
in spending resources to re-compile Annotations.
Later, template function `query` was added, which can execute
arbitrary queries and return different results on every evaluation.
So if it was used in annotations, it would be executed only on init
or value change.
Another case when optimization caused an issue - annotations hot reload.
In this case, annotations of the active alert won't change even if Rule's
annotations were changed.
This fix enables Annotations re-evaluation on each iteration to resolve
issues above. It would have some impact on performance, but it is unlikely
it will be noticeable.

* app/vmselect: ignore empty series for `limit_offset`
VictoriaMetrics doesn't return empty series (with all NaN values) to
the user. But such series are filtered after transform functions.
It means `limit_offset` will account for empty series as well.
For example, let's consider following data set:
```
time series:
foo{label="1"} NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN // empty series
foo{label="2"} 1, 2, 3, 4
foo{label="3"} 4, 3, 2, 1
```
When user requests all series for metric `foo` the empty series
will be filtered out:
```
/query=foo:
foo{label="v2"} 1, 2, 3, 4
foo{label="v3"} 4, 3, 2, 1
```
But `limit_offset(1, 1, foo)` is applied to original series, not filtered yet.
So it will return `foo{label="v2"}` (skips the first in list)
```
/query=limit_offset(1, 1, foo):
foo{label="v2"} 1, 2, 3, 4
```
Expected result would be to apply `limit_offset` to already filtered list,
so in result we receive `foo{label="v3"}`:
```
/query=limit_offset(1, 1, foo):
foo{label="v3"} 4, 3, 2, 1
```
The change does exactly that - filters empty series before applying `limit_offset`.

Previously empty series (e.g. series with all NaN samples) were passed to aggregate functions.
Such series must be ingored by all the aggregate functions.
So it is better from consistency PoV filtering out empty series before applying aggregate functions.
The workaround was introduced to fix https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/962.
However, it didn't prove itself useful. Instead, it is recommended using `increase_pure` function.
Removing the workaround makes VM to produce accurate results when calculating
`delta` or `increase` functions over slow-changing counters with vary intervals
between data points.

Other components, such as `vmagent`, mark these flags as sensitive and
hide them from the `/metrics` endpoint by default. This commit adds
similar handling to the `vmalert` component, hiding them by default, to
prevent logging of secrets inappropriately.
Showing of these values is controlled by an additional flag.
