* app/vmauth: properly release memory during config reload
previously metrics package hold a refrence for channels for users concurrent requests.
it case of churn at `name` field of users configuration, new metric was created. But previous one wasn't deleted.
It prevented full parsed configuration from being garbace collected.
now all config related metrics are bound to corresponding metrics.Set and unregistered during config reload process.
It also must fix an issue with incorrect values for current concurrent user requests

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/vmauth: adds metric_labels and backend_errors counter
it must improve observability for user requests with new metric - per user backend errors counter.
it's needed to calculate requests fail rate to the configured backends.
metric_labels configuration allows to perform additional aggregations on top of multiple users from configuration section.
It could be multiple clients or clients with separate read/write tokens

Previously `retry_status_codes: []` and `drop_src_path_prefix_parts: 0` at `url_map` were equivalent to missing values.
This was resulting in using the user-level values instead.
Previously the `Host` header was remained unchanged when passing it in requests to backends.
This may improperly work if the backend uses host-based routing.
While at it, allows http/2.0 requests to backends. While VictoriaMetrics components
do not accept http/2.0 requests, other backends can require such requests.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5240
- Re-use identically configured http.Transport across multiple users.
This fixes handling of the limit on the number of connection, which can be established per each backend
via -maxIdleConnsPerBackend command-line flag. This limit stopped working after 323f3720ed
- Add docs about backend TLS setup at https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmauth.html#backend-tls-setup
- Add ability to disable backend TLS verification for all the users via -backend.tlsInsecureSkipVerify command-line flag.
This flag may be useful when -auth.config contains big number of users, and every user must disable backend TLS verification.
- Add ability to specify TLS Root CA via tls_ca_file option at per-user basis and via -backend.tlsCAFile command-line flag
across all the users.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5240
Add `tls_insecure_skip_verify` option on per-user basis which allows to disable TLS verification for all requests to backend on behalf of this user.

support `Strict-Transport-Security`, `Content-Security-Policy` and `X-Frame-Options`
HTTP headers in all VictoriaMetrics components.
The values for headers can be specified by users via the following flags:
`-http.header.hsts`, `-http.header.csp` and `-http.header.frameOptions`.

- 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.

* expose metrics `vmauth_config_last_reload_*` for tracking the state of config reloads, similarly to vmagent/vmalert components.
* do not print logs like `SIGHUP received...` once per configured `-configCheckInterval` cmd-line flag. This log will be printed only if config reload was invoked manually.
* prevent configuration reloading if there were no changes in config. This improves memory usage when `-configCheckInterval` cmd-line flag is configured and config has extensive list of regexp expressions requiring additional memory on parsing.

vmauth: allow configuring deadline for a backend to be excluded from the rotation
The new flag `-failTimeout` allows overriding default time for a bad backend
to be excluded from rotation. The override option could be useful for systems
where it is expected for backends to be off for significant periods of time.

before the next attempt. This should reduce the amounts of useless work
and the number of useless network packets when the backend is temporarily unavailable.

This allows better controlling requests to backends and providing better error logging.
For example, if the backend was unavailable, then the ReverseProxy was logging the error
message without client ip and the initial request uri. This could harden debugging.
