Occasionally, vmagent sends empty blocks to downstream servers. If a
downstream server returns an unexpected response, vmagent gets stuck in
a retry loop. While vmagent handles 400 and 409 errors, there are
various prometheus remote write implementations that return different
error codes. For example, vector returns a 422 error. To mitigate the
risk of vmagent getting stuck in a retry loop, it is advisable to skip
sending empty blocks to downstream servers.

(cherry picked from commit 3661373cc2)
* adds datadog extensions for statsd:
- multiple packed values (v1.1)
- additional types distribution, histogram
* adds type check and append metric type to the labels with special tag
name `__statsd_metric_type__`. It simplifies streaming aggregation
config.
* remove statsd support from cluster, since cluster doesn't support
stream aggregation.

(cherry picked from commit 6b493582da)
The new flag type is supposed to be used for specifying URL values which
could contain sensitive information such as auth tokens in GET params or
HTTP basic authentication.
The URL flag also allows loading its value from files if `file://`
prefix is specified. As example, the new flag type was used in
app/vmbackup as it requires specifying `authKey` param for making the
snapshot.

Using `sh` or `console` formatting doesn't do word-breaking on render. This makes flags description

Removing the formatting renders the description with normal word-breaking.
(cherry picked from commit 9bedbcfa2f)
Stream aggregation may yield inaccurate results if it processes incomplete data.
This issue can arise when data is sourced from clients that maintain a queue of unsent data, such as Prometheus or vmagent.
If the queue isn't fully cleared within the aggregation interval, only a portion of the time series may be included in that period, leading to distorted calculations.
To mitigate this we add an option to ignore first N aggregation intervals. It is expected, that client queues
will be cleared during the time while aggregation ignores first N intervals and all subsequent aggregations
will be correct.

Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/6040
This speeds up auto-suggestion for metric names in VMUI and Grafana, which use the following query in this case:
/api/v1/label/__name__/values?match[]={__name__=~"*.some_value.*"}
When the user types `some_value` in the query input field.
- Use exact matching by default for the query arg value provided via arg=value syntax at src_query_args.
Regex matching can be enabled by using =~ instead of = . For example, arg=~regex.
This ensures that the exact matching works as expected without the need to escape special regex chars.
- Add helper functions for creating QueryArg, Header and Regex structs in tests.
This improves maintainability of the tests.
- Remove url.QueryUnescape() call on the url in TestCreateTargetURLSuccess(), since this is bogus approach.
The url.QueryUnescape() must be applied to individual query args, and it mustn't be applied to the whole url,
since in this case it may perform invalid unescaping in the context of the url, or make the resulting url invalid.
While at it, properly marshal all the fields inside UserInfo config to yaml in tests.
Previously Header and QueryArg structs were improperly marshaled because the custom MarshalYAML
is called only on pointers to Header and QueryArg structs. This improves test coverage.

* app/vmauth: do not increment backend_errors when hitting concurrency limit
Previously, both "vmauth_concurrent_requests_limit_reached_total" and "vmauth_user_request_backend_errors_total" were incremented.
This was based on the assumption that if concurrency limit is hit the backend must be failing to handle the request thus meaning an error.
This assumption does not work in case the endpoint can be overloaded by the misbehaving client sending too many requests within the timeframe.

- Automatically reload changed TLS root CA pointed by -remoteWrite.tlsCAFile command-line flag
- Automatically reload changed TLS root CA configured via oauth2.tsl_config.ca_file option at -promscrape.config
- Document the change as a feature instead of a bug at docs/CHANGELOG.md
- Simplify the code at lib/promauth, which is responsible for reloading changed TLS root CA files.
- Simplify the usage of lib/promauth.Config.NewRoundTripper() - now it accepts the base http.Transport
instead of a callback, which can change the internal http.Transport.
- Reuse the default tls config if lib/promauth.Config doesn't contain tls-specific configs.
This should reduce memory usage a bit when tls isn't used for scraping big number of targets.
- Do not re-read TLS root CA files on every processed request. Re-read them once per second.
This should reduce CPU usage when scraping big number of targets over https.
- Do not store cert.pem and key.pem files in TestTLSConfigWithCertificatesFilesUpdate, since they can be loaded
from byte slices via crypto/tls.X509KeyPair().
- Remove obsolete comparisons of string representations for authConfig and proxyAuthConfig at areEqualScrapeConfigs().

* lib/{promauth,promscrape}: automatically refresh root CA certificates after changes on disk
Added a custom `http.RoundTripper` implementation which checks for root CA content changes and updates `tls.Config` used by `http.RoundTripper` after detecting CA change.
Client certificate changes are not tracked by this implementation since `tls.Config` already supports passing certificate dynamically by overriding `tls.Config.GetClientCertificate`.
This change implements dynamic reload of root CA only for streaming client used for scraping. Blocking client (`fasthttp.HostClient`) does not support using custom transport so can't use this implementation.

auth token isn't read from Authorization header - it is read only from the specified header.

This reverts commit cb23685681.
Reason for revert: the "fix" may hide programming bugs related to incorrect creation of folders
before their use. This may complicate detecting and fixing such bugs in the future.
There are the following fixes for the issue https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5985 :
- To configure the OS to do not drop data from the system-wide temporary directory (aka /tmp).
- To run VictoriaMetrics with -cacheDataPath command-line flag, which points to the directory,
which cannot be removed automatically by the OS.
The case when the user accidentally deletes the directory with some files created by VictoriaMetrics
shouldn't be considered as expected, so VictoriaMetrics shouldn't try resolving this case automatically.
It is much better from operation and debuggability PoV is to crash with the clear `directory doesn't exist` error
in this case.
The remotewrite.Stop() expects that there are no pending calls to TryPush().
This means that the ingestionRateLimiter.Register() must be unblocked inside TryPush() when calling remotewrite.Stop().
Provide remotewrite.StopIngestionRateLimiter() function for unblocking the rate limiter before calling the remotewrite.Stop().
While at it, move the rate limiter into lib/ratelimiter package, since it has two users.
Also move the description of the feature to the correct place at docs/CHANGELOG.md.
Also cross-reference -remoteWrite.rateLimit and -maxIngestionRate command-line flags.
