The main purpose of this command-line flag is to increase the lifetime of low-end flash storage
with the limited number of write operations it can perform. Such flash storage is usually
installed on Raspberry PI or similar appliances.
For example, `-inmemoryDataFlushInterval=1h` reduces the frequency of disk write operations
to up to once per hour if the ingested one-hour worth of data fits the limit for in-memory data.
The in-memory data is searchable in the same way as the data stored on disk.
VictoriaMetrics automatically flushes the in-memory data to disk on graceful shutdown via SIGINT signal.
The in-memory data is lost on unclean shutdown (hardware power loss, OOM crash, SIGKILL).

The new panels have been added to the vmstorage and drilldown rows.
`Disk space usage %` is supposed to show disk space usage percentage.
This panel is now also referred by `DiskRunsOutOfSpace` alerting rule.
This panel has Drilldown option to show absolute values.
`Disk space usage % by type` shows the relation between datapoints
and indexdb size. It supposed to help identify cases when indexdb
starts to take too much disk space.
This panel has Drilldown option to show absolute values.

Method `metrics()` now pre-allocates slices for labels
and results from query responses. This reduces the number
of allocations on the hot path for instant requests.

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.

on cluster dashboards. Without `&` char it generates
wrong link when click on Drilldown menu.

* app/vmalert: add `remoteWrite.sendTimeout` command-line flag to configure timeout for sending data to `remoteWrite.url`
* vmalert: remove WriteTimeout from clients Cfg
No need to have it as a part of configuration struct:
* the client isn't used by other packages;
* there are no internal tests to check the WriteTimeout.
* vmalert: remove DisablePathAppend from clients Cfg

- Return meta-labels for the discovered targets via promutils.Labels
instead of map[string]string. This improves the speed of generating
meta-labels for discovered targets by up to 5x.
- Remove memory allocations in hot paths during ScrapeWork generation.
The ScrapeWork contains scrape settings for a single discovered target.
This improves the service discovery speed by up to 2x.
The change list is the following:
* bump Grafana version to 9.2.6;
* replace old "Graph" panel with "TimeSeries" panel;
* show % usage of Mem and CPU additionally to of absolute values;
* `Caches` row was removed. All needed info for caches is now part of `Troubleshooting`;
* add Annotations for Alert triggers. Not all alerts are supposed to be displayed
on the dashboard, but only those with label `show_at: dashboard`.
See `alerts.yml` change.
