Previously the interval between item addition and its conversion to searchable in-memory part
could vary significantly because of too coarse per-second precision. Switch from fasttime.UnixTimestamp()
to time.Now().UnixMilli() for millisecond precision. It is OK to use time.Now() for tracking
the time when buffered items must be converted to searchable in-memory parts, since time.Now()
calls aren't located in hot paths.
Increase the flush interval for converting buffered samples to searchable in-memory parts
from one second to two seconds. This should reduce the number of blocks, which are needed
to be processed during high-frequency alerting queries. This, in turn, should reduce CPU usage.
While at it, hardcode the maximum size of rawRows shard to 8Mb, since this size gives the optimal
data ingestion pefromance according to load tests. This reduces memory usage and CPU usage on systems
with big amounts of RAM under high data ingestion rate.
The pooled rawRowsBlock objects occupies big amounts of memory between flushes,
and the flushes are relatively rare. So it is better to don't use the pool
and to allocate rawRow blocks on demand. This should reduce the average
memory usage between flushes.
The buffer can be quite big under high ingestion rate (e.g. more than 100MB).
This leads to increased memory usage between buffer flushes.
So it is better to re-create the buffer on every flush in order to reduce memory usage
between buffer flushes.

- Consistently return the first `limit` log entries if the total size of found log entries doesn't exceed 1Mb.
See app/vlselect/logsql/sort_writer.go . Previously random log entries could be returned with each request.
- Document the change at docs/VictoriaLogs/CHANGELOG.md
- Document the `limit` query arg at docs/VictoriaLogs/querying/README.md
- Make the change less intrusive.

Instead, log a sample of these long items once per 5 seconds into error log,
so users could notice and fix the issue with too long labels or too many labels.
Previously this panic could occur in production when ingesting samples with too long labels.
The 3c246cdf00 added an optimization where the previous metaindexRow
could be saved to disk when the current block header couldn't be added indexBlock because the resulting
indexBlock size became too big. This could result in an empty metaindexRow.firstItem for the next metaindexRow.
This allows removing importing unneeded command-line flags into binaries, which import lib/storage,
which, in turn, was importing lib/snapshot in order to use Time, Validate and NewName functions.

Closing client connections every 2 minutes doesn't help load balancing -
this just leads to "jumpy" connections between multiple backend servers,
e.g. the load isn't spread evenly among backend servers, and instead jumps
between the servers every 2 minutes.
It is still possible periodically closing client connections by specifying non-zero -http.connTimeout command-line flag.
This should help with https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1304#issuecomment-1636997037

There is no sense in storing commonPrefix for blockHeader containing only a single item,
since this only increases blockHeader size without any benefits.
This panic could occur when samples with too long label values are ingested into VictoriaMetrics.
This could result in too long fistItem and commonPrefix values at blockHeader (up to 64kb each).
This may inflate the maximum index block size by 4 * maxIndexBlockSize.
For example, -fooDuration=',10s,' is now supported - it sets three command-line flag values:
- the first and the last one are set to the default value for `-fooDuration`
- the second one is set to 10s
This should significantly reduce the number of open ReaderAt files
on VictoriaMetrics and VictoriaLogs startup.
The open files can be tracked via vm_fs_readers metric
GOGC can be already set via environment variable. There is no need in adding
new approaches for setting the GOGC (such as command-line flag), since they complicate operations.
Remove temporary file before closing it in order to signal the OS that it shouldn't
store the file contents from page cache to disk when the file is closed.
Gracefully handle the case when the file cannot be removed before being closed -
in this case remove the file after closing it. This allows working on Windows.
Also remove superflouos opening of temporary file for reading - re-use already opened file handle for writing.

The easyproto-based marshaler is 2x slower than the previous custom marshaler,
so let's stick with it. This improves the performance for sending data to remote storage at vmagent
and reduces CPU usage to pre-v1.97.0 levels.
