During shutdown period of vmalert, remotewrite client retrieve all pending time series from buffer queue, compose them into 1 batch and execute remote write.
This final batch may exceed the limit of -remoteWrite.maxBatchSize, and be rejected by the receiver (gateway, vmcluster or others).
This changes ensures that even during shutdown vmalert won't exceed the max batch size limit for remote write
destination.

* vmalert: fix sending alert messages
1. fix `endsAt` field in messages that send to alertmanager, previously rule with small interval could never be triggered;
2. fix behavior of `-rule.resendDelay`, before it could prevent sending firing message when rule state is volatile.

* app/vmalert: fix data race during hot-config reload
During hot-reload, the logic evokes the group update and rules evaluation
interruption simultaneously. Falsely assuming that interruption happens before
the update. However, it could happen that group will be updated first and only
after the rules evaluation will be cancelled. Which will result in permanent
interruption for all rules within the group.
The fix caches the cancel context function into local variable first. And only after
performs the group update. With cached cancel function we can safely call it without
worrying that we cancel the evaluation for already updated group.

* app/vmalert: autogenerate `ALERTS_FOR_STATE` time series for alerting rules with `for: 0`
Previously, `ALERTS_FOR_STATE` was generated only for alerts with `for > 0`.
This behavior differs from Prometheus behavior - it generates ALERTS_FOR_STATE
time series for alerting rules with `for: 0` as well. Such time series can
be useful for tracking the moment when alerting rule became active.

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.
It was calculating the number of dropped time series instead of the number of dropped samples.
While at it, drop vmalert_remotewrite_dropped_bytes_total metric, since it was inconsistently calculated -
at one place it was calculating raw protobuf-encoded sample sizes, while at another place it was calculating
the size of snappy-compressed prompbmarshal.WriteRequest protobuf message.
Additionally, this metric has zero practical sense, so just drop it in order to reduce the level of confusion.
automatically add `exported_` prefix for original evaluation result label if it's conflicted with external or reserved one,
previously it was overridden.

- Make sure that invalid/missing TLS CA file or TLS client certificate files at vmagent startup
don't prevent from processing the corresponding scrape targets after the file becomes correct,
without the need to restart vmagent.
Previously scrape targets with invalid TLS CA file or TLS client certificate files
were permanently dropped after the first attempt to initialize them, and they didn't
appear until the next vmagent reload or the next change in other places of the loaded scrape configs.
- Make sure that TLS CA is properly re-loaded from file after it changes without the need to restart vmagent.
Previously the old TLS CA was used until vmagent restart.
- Properly handle errors during http request creation for the second attempt to send data to remote system
at vmagent and vmalert. Previously failed request creation could result in nil pointer dereferencing,
since the returned request is nil on error.
- Add more context to the logged error during AWS sigv4 request signing before sending the data to -remoteWrite.url at vmagent.
Previously it could miss details on the source of the request.
- Do not create a new HTTP client per second when generating OAuth2 token needed to put in Authorization header
of every http request issued by vmagent during service discovery or target scraping.
Re-use the HTTP client instead until the corresponding scrape config changes.
- Cache error at lib/promauth.Config.GetAuthHeader() in the same way as the auth header is cached,
e.g. the error is cached for a second now. This should reduce load on CPU and OAuth2 server
when auth header cannot be obtained because of temporary error.
- Share tls.Config.GetClientCertificate function among multiple scrape targets with the same tls_config.
Cache the loaded certificate and the error for one second. This should significantly reduce CPU load
when scraping big number of targets with the same tls_config.
- Allow loading TLS certificates from HTTP and HTTPs urls by specifying these urls at `tls_config->cert_file` and `tls_config->key_file`.
- Improve test coverage at lib/promauth
- Skip unreachable or invalid files specified at `scrape_config_files` during vmagent startup, since these files may become valid later.
Previously vmagent was exitting in this case.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4959
It could return either `failed to read` or `failed to parse` errors depending
on whether the given url can be loaded or not under the current environment

Descriptions were updated in attempt to make it more clear for readers,
re-phrasing and linking missing docs.
`eval_delay` was added to tests to verify it can be unmarshalled.
`eval_delay` is now applied before timestamp alignment to make it more predictable.
Before, if delay < interval the timestamp won't be aligned.
`eval_delay` and `eval_offset` was added to API output.
`PreviouslySentSeriesToRW` converted to private `previouslySentSeriesToRW`.

- Make more clear the docs at docs/enterprise.md, so readers could figure out faster
on how to obtain enterprise key and how to pass it to VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components.
- Fix examples at docs/enterprise.md, which were referring to non-existing `-license-file` command-line flag.
The `-licenseFile` command-line flag must be used instead.
- Improve the description of `-license*` command-line flags, so users could understand
faster how to use them.
- Improve the warning message, which is emitted when the deprecated -eula command-line flag is passed,
so the user could figure out how to switch faster to -license* command-line flags.
- Disallow running VictoriaMetrics components with both -license and -licenseFile command-line flags.
- Disallow running VictoriaMetrics components when -licensFile points to an empty file.
- Consistently use the phrase "This flag is available only in Enterprise binaries" across
all the enterprise-specific command-line flags.
- Remove unneeded level of indirection for `noLicenseMessage` and `expiredMessage` string contants
in order to improve code readability and maintainability.
- Remove unneded `return` statements after `logger.Fatalf()` calls, since these calls exit the app and never return.
- Make sure that the info log message about successful license verification is emitted
when the license is verified successfully. Previously the error message could be logged
when the license payload is invalid or if it misses some required features.
* vmalert: add `query_time_alignment` for rule group
1. add `eval_alignment` attribute for group which by default is true. So group rule query stamp will be aligned with interval and propagated to ALERT metrics and the messages for alertmanager;
2. deprecate `datasource.queryTimeAlignment` flag.

Strip sensitive information such as auth headers or passwords from datasource, remote-read,
remote-write or notifier URLs in log messages or UI. This behavior is by default and is controlled via

https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5044
Adds `eval_offset` attribute for Groups.
If specified, Group will be evaluated at the exact time offset on the range of [0...evaluationInterval].
The setting might be useful for cron-like rules which must be evaluated at specific moments of time.
