This reduces the number of memory allocations at the cost of possible memory usage increase,
since now different metric name strings may hold references to the previous byte slice.
This is good tradeoff, since ProcessSearchQuery is called in vmselect, and vmselect isn't usually limited by memory.
This change has been extracted from https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5527
Examples:
1) -metricsAuthKey=file:///abs/path/to/file - reads flag value from the given absolute filepath
2) -metricsAuthKey=file://./relative/path/to/file - reads flag value from the given relative filepath
3) -metricsAuthKey=http://some-host/some/path?query_arg=abc - reads flag value from the given url
The flag value is automatically updated when the file contents changes.

app/vmselect/promql/eval.go:evalAggrFunc shunts evaluation
of AggrFuncExpr over rollupFunc over MetricsExpr to an optimized
path. tryGetArgRollupFuncWithMetricExpr() checks whether expression
can be shunted, but it mangles the AggrFuncExpr when the aggregation
function has more than one argument. This results in queries like
`sum(aggr_over_time("avg_over_time",m))` failing with error message
'expecting at least 2 args to "aggr_over_time"; got 1 args' while
the analogous query `sum(avg_over_time(m))` executes successfully.
This fix removes the unnecessary mangling.

Previously the lower bound could be too small, which could result in missing values at the beginning of the graph
for default_rollup() function. This function is automatically applied to all the series selectors if they aren't
explicitly wrapped into a rollup function - see https://docs.victoriametrics.com/MetricsQL.html#implicit-query-conversions
While at it, properly take into account `-search.minStalenessInterval` command-line flag when adjusting
the lower bound for the selected time range.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5388
Previously concurrency for static and fast queries was limited with the -search.maxConcurrentRequests
command-line flag. This could complicate identifying heavy queries via `vmui` at `Top queries` and `Active queries` pages,
since `vmui` and these pages couldn't be opened on overloaded vmselect.
Thanks to @f41gh7 for the idea.
Previously the number of memory allocations inside copyTimeseriesShallow() was equal to 1+len(tss)
Reduce this number to 2 by pre-allocating a slice of timeseries structs with len(tss) length.
evalRollupFuncNoCache() may return time series with identical labels (aka duplicate series)
when performing queries satisfying all the following conditions:
- It must select time series with multiple metric names. For example, {__name__=~"foo|bar"}
- The series selector must be wrapped into rollup function, which drops metric names. For example, rate({__name__=~"foo|bar"})
- The rollup function must be wrapped into aggregate function, which has no streaming optimization.
For example, quantile(0.9, rate({__name__=~"foo|bar"})
In this case VictoriaMetrics shouldn't return `cannot merge series: duplicate series found` error.
Instead, it should fall back to query execution with disabled cache.
Also properly store the merged results. Previously they were incorrectly stored because of a typo
introduced in the commit 41a0fdaf39

- If min_over_time(m[offset] @ timestamp) <= min_over_time(m[offset] @ (timestamp-window)),
then the optimization can be applied.
- If max_over_time(m[offset] @ timestamp) >= max_over_time(m[offset] @ (timestamp-window)),
then the optimization can be applied.

This reduction is based on production testing.
Also expose -search.minWindowForInstantRollupOptimization command-line flag, so users could fine-tune this arg for their needs
vmalert expects string value for stats.seriesFetched, so it is impossible
switching to number without breaking compatibility with old vmalert releases :(
It is still unclear why stats.seriesFetched has string type in the first place...
Repeated instant queries with long lookbehind windows, which contain one of the following rollup functions,
are optimized via partial result caching:
- sum_over_time()
- count_over_time()
- avg_over_time()
- increase()
- rate()
The basic idea of optimization is to calculate
rf(m[d] @ t)
as
rf(m[offset] @ t) + rf(m[d] @ (t-offset)) - rf(m[offset] @ (t-d))
where rf(m[d] @ (t-offset)) is cached query result, which was calculated previously
The offset may be in the range of up to 1 hour.
The new metric gets increased each time `-search.logQueryMemoryUsage` memory limit
is exceeded by a query. This metric should help to identify expensive and heavy queries
without inspecting the logs.

* app/vmselect: limit the number of parallel workers by 32
The change should improve performance and memory usage during query processing
on machines with big number of CPU cores. The number of parallel workers for
query processing is controlled via `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery` command-line flag.
By default, the number of workers is limited by the number of available CPU cores,
but not more than 32. The limit can be increased via `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery`.

This can be useful in the following queries:
drop_empty_series(temperature <= 30) default 40
This query drops temperature series with all the values bigger than 30 on the selected time range,
while replacing gaps in the remaining series with 40.
The query without drop_empty_series:
(temperature <= 30) default 40
would leave all the temperature series with all the values bigger than 30 on the selected time range,
and replace all their values with 40. This is not what could be epxected in some cases
like here - https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5071
- Reduce vertical space usage, so more information is available on the screen without the need to scroll.
- Show information for lines with higher values at the top of the legend under the graph.
This should simplify graph analysis when it contains many lines.
reduce lock contention for heavy aggregation requests
previously lock contetion may happen on machine with big number of CPU due to enabled string interning. sync.Map was a choke point for all aggregation requests.
Now instead of interning, new string is created. It may increase CPU and memory usage for some cases.
https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5087
`median_over_time` is handled by predefined WITH template in MetricsQL library which translates it to `quantile_over_time(0.5)`
This makes it impossble to use `median_over_time` as a usual rollup function for `aggr_over_time`.

- Document the change at docs/CHANGELOG.md
- Set the default value for -vmstorageUserTimeout to 3 seconds. This is much better
than the 0 value, which means that TCP connection to unreachable vmstorage could block
for up to 16 minutes.
- Document -vmstorageUserTimeout at docs/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.md
`TCP_USER_TIMEOUT` (since Linux 2.6.37) specifies the maximum amount of
time that transmitted data may remain unacknowledged before TCP will
forcibly close the connection and return `ETIMEDOUT` to the application.
Setting a low TCP user timeout allows RPC connections quickly reroute
around unavailable storage nodes during network interruptions.

- Clarify docs about -replicationFactor command-line flag at vmselect
- Clarify description for -replicationFactor and -search.skipSlowReplicas command-line flags
- Fix the logic for returning responses if -search.skipSlowReplicas command-line flag
is enabled. The logic was broken in the 173ccf4333,
so it could return responses only if some of vmstorage nodes return error,
while it should return when query results are successfully collected from more than
(len(storageNodes) - replicationFactor) vmstorage nodes.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1207
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/711
* vmselect: introduce `search.skipSlowReplicas` cmd-line flag
vmselect has two logical conditions during request processing when
`-replicationFactor` cmd-line flag is set:
1. If at least `len(storageNodes) - replicationFactor` responded, it could skip
waiting for the rest of nodes to respond. This could lead to problems described
here https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1207.
2. Mark response as partial if less than `len(storageNodes) - replicationFactor` responded
without an error.
The P1 showed itself error-prone and became the main reason why
`-replicationFactor` wasn't recommended to use at vmselect level.
However, this optimization could be still very useful in situations
when there are slow and fast replicas in cluster.
But P2 remains viable and important conditionless.
Hiding P1 behind the feature-flag `search.skipSlowReplicas`
should make `-replicationFactor` flag usable again. And let users
choose whether they want P1 to be respected.

* vmselect: exit early from queue on context cancel
When `-search.maxConcurrentRequests` is reached, vmselect puts
request in the queue. It is expected, that requests in the queue
will be processed as soon as it would be enough capacity to do so.
However, it could happen that while request was waiting its turn,
the client could have already cancel it (close the connection,
or just close the tab with UI). In this case, we should de-queue
such requests to avoid spending extra resources on them.

Use fs.MustReadDir() instead of os.ReadDir() across the code in order to reduce the code verbosity.
The fs.MustReadDir() logs the error with the directory name and the call stack on error
before exit. This information should be enough for debugging the cause of the error.
Callers of this function log the returned error and exit.
So let's just log the error with the given filepath and the call stack
inside the function itself and then exit. This simplifies the code
at callers' place while leaves the same level of debuggability in case of errors.
Callers of these functions log the returned error and then exit. The returned error already contains the path
to directory, which was failed to be created. So let's just log the error together with the call stack
inside these functions. This leaves the debuggability of the returned error at the same level
while allows simplifying the code at callers' side.
While at it, properly use MustMkdirFailIfExist instead of MustMkdirIfNotExist inside inmemoryPart.MustStoreToDisk().
It is expected that the inmemoryPart.MustStoreToDick() must fail if there is already a directory under the given path.
There is a bug here where if you have a single bucket like:
foo{vmrange="4.084e+02...4.642e+02"} 2 123
The expected output is three le encoded buckets like:
foo{le="4.084e+02"} 0 123
foo{le="4.642e+02"} 2 123
foo{le="+Inf"} 2 123
This correctly encodes the start and end of the vmrange.
If however, the input contains the previous bucket, and that bucket is
empty then you only get the end le and +Inf out currently, i.e:
foo{vmrange="7.743e+05...8.799e+05"} 5 123
foo{vmrange="6.813e+05...7.743e+05"} 0 123
results in:
foo{le="8.799e+05"} 5 123
foo{le="+Inf"} 5 123
This causes issues when you go to compute a quantile because this means
that the assumed lower bound of the buckets is 0 and this we interpolate
between 0->end rather than the vmrange start->end as expected.
- Expose stats.seriesFetched at `/api/v1/query_range` responses too
for the sake of consistency.
- Initialize QueryStats when it is needed and pass it to EvalConfig then.
This guarantees that the QueryStats is properly collected when the query
contains some subqueries.
The change adds a new field `seriesFetched` to EvalConfig object.
Since EvalConfig object can be copied inside `Exec`,
`seriesFetched` is a pointer which can be updated by all copied
objects.
The reason for having stats is that other components, like vmalert,
could benefit from this information.
